[Gvsig_english] gvSIG-project file: artefacts?

[Simon Cropper]

Wolfgang,

I have reported this behaviour before. See

http://www.mail-archive.com/gvsig_internacional@listserv.gva.es/msg00910.html

The problem is that when you create a project it inherits the file list in the 
project file that is currently open. You need to create a project file with an 
empty project file - then you will only get one file reference (a default dummy 
link to ORA_EPSG.DBF I think).

I have safely stripped all <property key="file"... references from a project 
including the default dummy, leaving only the files listed in the ToC and the 
project works fine.
