<h2>Java settings page</h2>
<p>You can skip this page by pressing <span class="control">Finish</span> on the first page. Otherwise press <span class="control">Next</span> to configure the <a href="ref-123b.htm">Java Build
Path</a>.<br>
If the project location on the first page has been set to an existing directory, you will be prompted if the New Java Project wizard should try to detect existing classpath
settings. To do this the project will be created early on the invocation of the <span class="control">Next</span> button, and the <span class="control">Back</span> will be
disabled on the Java Settings page.</p>
