使GoClipse在普通的GO工作区中正常工作

Question

I have been trying to use GoClipse (0.8.1v2001409161333 - latest available from the goclipse_feature.feature.group) with Eclipse (4.4.2) on Linux (CentOS6.6) with GO (1.4.2-2.el6) installed via yum from EPEL and have only achieved partial functionality.

Intellisense appears to work fine for the built in packages but GoClipse appears to do something weird with it's directory structure that is different from the normal GO workspace layout. The existing structure under source control looks like: $GOPATH/bin/... $GOPATH/pkg/... $GOPATH/src/externalsite/module/version/*.go $GOPATH/src/externalsite/module/version/subdir/*.go $GOPATH/src/me/module/*.go $GOPATH/src/me/module/feature/*.go

When I try and use GoClipse it always appears to insist that the *.go files must be a peer of the bin|pkg|src directories. This means that I either have my *.go files at $GOPATH or tell GoClipse where main.go is ($GOPATH/src/me/module/main.go) and GoClipse creates the bin|pkg|src directories again: $GOPATH/src/me/module/bin/ $GOPATH/src/me/module/pkg/ $GOPATH/src/me/module/src/

My GoClipse configuration has $GOPATH set appropriately (I have tried with $GOROOT undefined or set to the yum install location to no effect) and when creating the Go project from existing code specifying the location as $GOPATH/src/me/module/ (manually expanding $GOPATH)

Some resources that I have located do not appear to offer any advice on getting GoClipse to respect the proper go workspace structure and I am hoping someone can tell me how to do this.
The following resources might be of interest but they do not solve this difficulty:

Indeed, goclipse.github.io/releases is the latest update site URL, so you should use the latest version (the URL did change several times since in the span of the previous year). The way Goclipse handles the Go enviroment has changed significantly since 0.8.0, particularly with 0.9.0, which allows creating an Eclipse project on a folder inside a GOPATH 'src' entry. (and other cases are handled better, especially with the builder).

Note: you will need to recreate your Eclipse Go projects after updating (0.10.0 had some internal, non backward-compatible changes).
