i'm working with eclipse c/c++ helios.
i'm using template projects with makefile with a multimedia framework. all dll dependencies are specified in makefile, so no nightmare.
i have an empty projects template, so each time i had to start a new project i have to make a new copy of that folder, import in eclipse as a makefile project.
despite of this simplicity i have to :
1) add project references
2)make a new launch configurations:
right-click on project > properties > run/debug settings > new..
and set somethings
i know that handle this with an eclipse plugin but i'm not interest in that.
i would like to make a little python script that copy emptyProject folder, edit .project or .cproject or whatever, and do the boring launch configuration for me. project references are in .project file,
but new launch configurations? where it is? where can i find that informations? in .project or .cproject i didn't find anything.
wherelse can i looking for?
i worked it out due to this post:
How do I save Eclipse launch profiles across workspaces?
i found the asnwer.
the place for launch configurations is:
[eclipse-workspace]\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.debug.core\.launches

I am using Eclipse Indigo, and after having successfully extracted my project folder into my Eclipse workspace, it does not show up in the package explorer. I tried refreshing eclipse and restarting it, to no avail. I am 100% certain my eclipse is using the right directory and the project is in it.
What could be the problem? Thank you.
EDIT: "import projects into workspace" worked for me, but why was that necessary?
Files in the directory are not automatically picked up by the package explorer. You need to import them.
Try using the File > import, then choose
Existing Projects into workspace.
There is a checkbox that says "Copy projects into workspace" which copies it to your workspace if it happens to be in a different folder. If you start with your files in another folder, you'll see how it's copied and set up with configuration files in your workspace directory.
To answer the question, "why is it necessary to import?" you have to realize that the Eclipse workspace is just a logical container for projects, not necessarily the physical container for them.
Also realize that a directory of project-related files does not make an Eclipse Project; Eclipse must be given or generate it's own set of configuration in order to understand a project (minimally, for Java projects, .project and .classpath). Without those, Eclipse has no idea what to do with an arbitrary folder that you call a "project." That's what the Import or Create Project wizards are doing under the covers, generating those config files.
I can't open Activiti source code in netbeans It just says "Project folder is managed by a project Activiti. Instead of creating a new project just open it. If by a chance you just deleted the project Activiti then restart the IDE to reuse the folder."
I have restarted Netbeans and re-cloned the project but it still won't open.
And eclipse just says that the javac was not found in the build.xml.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The project folder does not contain a nbproject folder.
Try the following:
rename the pom.xml file to something else, e.g. pom.xmlzzzz,
create the project in NetBeans,
rename pom.xmlzzzz back to pom.xml once the project has loaded in NetBeans.
I've just hit the same problem with a different project and this is what fixed it for me.
Netbeans creates a folder in your project named "nbproject". Once you delete that, restart the IDE and you're good to go.
Go to the folder containing your project
Delete the folder named nbproject
Restart Netbeans
Try creating your project again from the original folder
I bought a new computer and installed Eclipse on it. After the ADT plugin finished downloading I tried to import my projects (composed of 4 sub-projects), but Eclipse doesn't see them!
I just click "import/general/import existing projects into workspace", select the folder containing the sub projects, hit the open button but Eclipse says "No projects found to import".
I'm using Eclipse Kepler and the projects files are directly taken from Eclipse Juno.
Eclipse need .project file to import the projects into workspace. what you can do is create a new project and copy the source and libraries into that project
Alternative method can be that create a new project and copy the .project file from that project to your project but make sure you edit the .project file and change the name of that project according to your project. read this for more information on .project file
http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fmisc%2Fproject_description_file.html
I will suggest you to use the First method .
Make sure that you've tried to:
Refresh everything
Searched for Nested Items
Go to (In the libg-gdx setup) Advanced >> Check Eclipse
And if that doesn't work, add a .project file into the folder manually
I manually copy needed jar files into my project lib folder. Then, I try to add them to build path via "configure build path option". If i choose "add jar", then the lib folder does not show up in the "to choose from" list. So, I am forced to use "add external jars" option instead. But, that option does not make the jars a part of the project even though they lie in the lib folder. After I restart eclipse 2-3 times, the jars are magically integrated into my project.
Why is eclipse behaving this way ? Why can't I do this easily ?
Please help me.
By default, Eclipse dose not detect file change which come from outside, like copy a jar file in lib folder manually.
So after you copied jar files, you have to refresh the project by pressing F5 while selecting your lib folder. I believe that's why eclipse cannot found your jar files.
If you want to solve this problem once for all, you can active "Refresh using native hooks or polling" via
Window -> Preference -> General -> Workspace
However, this might slow down Eclipse if you have a big project with many many files.
UPDATE
As Bananeweizen mentioned, instead of doing all the copied from outside of Eclipse, you can also copied those file into Eclipse, Package Explorer View for example. This way Eclipse will detect and refresh folder automatically.
The way I was taught to add external jars to an eclipse project is to drag the jar file from explorer into the lib folder in eclipse and then on the dialogue eclipse responds with is choose the copy to option and eclipse imports the jar file and copies it to the lib location at the same time.
I have one IntelliJ project and I want to open it in Eclipse, so what should I do?
There is an export to eclipse option in Intellij Under file menu.
This option will generate you the necessary .project and .classpath files that will be used by eclipse. Personally, I would remove any IDE dependencies using some dependency management systems like Maven or Apache IVY. ( Is system the right term?)
I had the same issue and (I don't have Intellij) but doc_180's comment pointed me in the right direction. Here is a simple solution. In Eclipse create a new blank Android project. Copy the .project and .classpath files and the .settings folder to the Intellij folder. Edit the .project file and change the name of the project.
You should now be able to Import the project in Eclipse by right clicking and selecting "Import->Existing Project into Workspace".
I see this is an old question, but thought I should add this answer for others Googling it like me ;)
Without access to IntelliJ to export and convert the project, try the following.
In STS or Eclipse create an empty project first, then, select File -> Import and choose General -> File System. In the resulting dialog box, select the root folder of the IntelliJ project as source and the empty project as the destination.
For unit tests, add the test folder as a source folder to the build path (right-click on the folder, select Build Path -> Use as Source Folder).
The projects I import this way run without any further modifications, including the tests.
Eclipse and Intellij create different project structure each other (Output path, Source Code etc...). You can export the current project to Eclipse environment.
File -> Export -> Project to Eclipse
