Hi all,

I've made a project named 'sample' and I have a button in another view.
I would like to get an IFolder instance of project 'sample''s root folder when button clicked.
I've tried "project.getFolder(".")" but throws an Exception.
Is there any suggestions about it?

Thanks and have a nice day~

IProject is IContainer

Why do you need IFolder and can not simply use IContainer methods on
IProject directly?

Thanks,
