Description
I'm new to VS Code and now trying to convert an Eclipse project to VS Code.
I have multiple Java projects stored in a common folder.
Each project have its own .vscode/settings.json file.
The projects are unmanaged using VS Code terminology.
Opening a project individually everything works as expected.
Opening the holding folder, the projects are treated as a single project.
Environment
- Operating System: Mac Sonoma 14.4.1
- JDK version: 21
- Visual Studio Code version: 1.88.1
- Java extension version: 1.29
Steps To Reproduce
- open folder "multi"
Sample project:
multi.zip
Current Result
Single Java project called multi
Expected Result
Two Java projects named p1 and p2
Additional Informations

Research direction
Start by opening the attached multi.zip sample in VS Code with the reported Java and extension versions, then compare opening each project individually with opening the common multi folder. Investigate why the holding folder is treated as one Java project; done means the folder exposes separate projects named p1 and p2.
