I am sorry for difficulties but the code WAS broken. I revealed it 
thanks to java xtests. The setting is registered in the 
projects/compilation nature under the Build type configuration as 
'proj-comp-outputfolder'. It is also used in the Sample project and 
compilation xtests. The change from 'proj-comp-outputfolder' to 
'proj-comp-outputFolder' was caused in all likelihood by accident as a 
part of the fix of the issue #34939 (see 
OutputFolderContextSupport.java, revision 1.1.2.10).

AFAIK the setting is not published anywhere in documentation so I did 
not consider necessary to notify the fix ahead. If you need such an API, 
please file a RFE for the projects/compilation module.
