Excluding library class in Eclipse

Question

Is there a way to exclude classes getting built from a specific Eclipse project's referenced library?

I'm aware of Build Path -> Exclude, though I'd like a more project specific setting, to avoid building unnecessary classes. That is, some projects should be able to access the library's files, while some exclude it from their build path. The library has the source file attached, so I'm able to edit and exclude all classes from the library in Eclipse.

I meant to emphasize that I've already tried that, and that it's not a very project specific way to go. Only some projects should exclude a specific file from being built. — Johan Svensson, Dec 29 '15 at 13:38

Found a possible solution. I linked my library's source via Build Path -> Link Source, and then excluded the files from that source folder.
