Summary:                    Support of linked resources in Eclipse/CDT (single
files, not folders)
Description: 
When you´d like to add a single file that is placed outside the regular source
folder, you can use the "linked resource" function of Eclipse/CDT. 
Using this you will get a link to a single file within your project, that can be
edited, compiled, etc. as if it was in your source folder.

At the moment it (seems that it(?)) isn´t possible to create links when using
CMake to create a Eclipse project. The files will be compiled, as they should,
but you won´t be able to see them in the Eclipse project explorer.


Steps to Reproduce: 
e.g. add_library( foo A_FILE_OUTSIDE_OF_THE_REGULAR_SOURCE_FOLDER)

cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles"

File->Import->Existing Projects into Workspace
