So what if you delete file  form your project and want  restore it will you look for the file in your Recycle Bin.Ok go ahead but you will no able to find it because Eclipse doesn’t use the RecycleBin. Instead, Eclipse copies the file in its own local history.

Oops..!What does this mean..? 

 I will not able to retrieve the file again …

No you can ..! 

 Eclipse’s local history maintains copies of thingsthat you modify or delete. To restore a file thatyou deleted, do the following: 

1. Right-click a package or project branch inthe Package Explorer or the Navigator view.

2. In the resulting context menu, selectRestore from Local History.The Restore from Local History dialogappears. The dialog contains a list ofdeleted files, along with a check box foreach file in the list. 

3. Put a check mark next to the file that youwant to undelete. 

4. Click Restore.

 Hooray! You have your file again.
