When starting MyEclipse, it gets to the splash banner and begins loading various packages. It eventually hangs. I’m on Windows XP with MyEclipse 6.0.1. Recently our team checked in our .project into source control so I have a new copy of that file. This worked fine for me the first few days and for everyone else. I looked in the .log file in the only .metadata directory I have on my machine, so I’m assuming it’s my workspace. This message appears a few hours ago. I’ve killed Java several times since then and tried to restart and get the same result, but no new errors.
Is there some way to delete the project from the workspace so I can start cleanly and then build a new project? I can’t find anything on the web about deleting a project in eclipse from a config file.

I would suggest you switch to a new workspace (File > Switch Workspace > Temp) and then build your new project there. You can even right click on your project and delete it but I would prefer the first option.
Yep that’s what I ended up doing. It’s a shame as I lost several years of configuration. I did manage to copy over my SQL explorer configs thankfully.
