Description
Project Explorer view is not refreshed after change of Build Configuration

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create simple (unmanaged) C/C++ project with at least two build configurations and with common folder used in both build configurations, one resource (folder) used in one build configuration and another resource (folder) used in another configuration.
  2. Configure resources appropriately so every Build Configuration includes only necessary resources.
  3. Refresh Project Explorer view using either F5 key or pop-up menu.
  4. Switch build configurations
  5. See Project Explorer view still shows resource(s) specific for previous Build Configuration as available while resources of active Build Configuration greyed (unavailable)
  6. Refresh Project Explorer view manually using either F5 key or pop-up menu.
  7. See Project Explorer shows resources as expected for active Build Configuration
  8. Repeat steps 4 through 7

Expected behavior
Project Explorer changes view of resources on change of active Build Configuration as it were in earlier versions.
