What project files does Visual Studio Code create via its Java extensions?

by

Simplified the Language Support for Java™ by Red Hat is the headless Eclipse Java IDE integrated into Visual Studio Code via the Language Server Protocol (LSP). See the self-description of the extension:

Provides Java™ language support via Eclipse JDT Language Server, which
utilizes Eclipse JDT, M2Eclipse and Buildship.

Except for .vscode/, the mentioned files are Eclipse Java IDE files.

Because in Eclipse these files are not intended to be edited manually, there is little or no documentation about them (the Java compiler settings in .settings/org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs are similar to the command line arguments of the Eclipse batch compiler).

For example, the documentation of the Java extension recommends using the Eclipse Java IDE to edit the formatter settings (which are also stored in .settings/org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs) and concludes:

No it’s not an ideal solution, but it should be done only once, unless
you regularly change your formatter settings.
