Add remove work directory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I use Eclipse Tomcat plug-in develops Web applications
2. If I change the JSP source code, then will be delete the work directory in 
the root directory of my project, and change others, such as HTML, CSS file
3. Click File Synchronization

I hope add this feature to clean up the work directory, thanks

Sorry, I can't get the point of the enhancement.
Which directory should be deleted??? Before or after synchronization? 
May be a small example could help?

Regards,
Andrey

Sorry, a directory named 'work' that stores compiled JSP files.

The following is the structure of my project:

drwxrwxr-x 7 xavierzhao xavierzhao  4096 Nov 14 18:06 ./
drwxrwxr-x 4 xavierzhao xavierzhao  4096 Oct 31 16:48 ../

drwxrwxr-x 3 xavierzhao xavierzhao  4096 Nov 14 18:07 work/

I hope removed 'work' directory after click File Synchronization

Thanks for the directory layout, but I still have no clue what you are talking 
about. 

What is the expected work flow and how a "delete" operation fits to the *file 
synchronization* task, which is the main point of FileSync. BTW in the 
"automatic" mode FileSync synchronizes on each file change - so do you really 
want delete the /work directory each time for each and every file change in 
your project?

Can it be, that you are looking for a deployment tool (or set of scripts doing 
that)?
