Eclipse - Files Beginning .# ?

I have recently done some code merging and now I notice there are some files (I think they are the same ones) have appeared in my package explorer.
I can filter them out, but what are they?
Im using 3.0M3

In the package explorer view there is a little dropdown arrow (right before the X) that leads to a "Filter..." choice that may do what you want.

Hi Ed,
thanks - I know I can filter them out, but what are they?
I know they must be something to do with CVS - maybe I should post my query in another group, unless someone here knows.

I see. I'm not really sure for CVS, but if it works anything like CMVC (don't ask) they are probably temporary files that act as a backups to ensure that nothing is lost when you extract a file over an existing file. The Eclipse platform forum is probably a good place to ask...

I have found out that this is a locally saved copy of original files before I merged them, presumably just in case something bad happened !
