Hey all-
So, I have my workspace folder inside a dropbox folder, so when I edit/save on my laptop, I can continue the work on my desktop. This part has worked fine, however, when I launch another copy of eclipse, (I'm using java juno), and point it to another workspace, then open my original copy, and point it to the original workspace (in the dropbox folder), I get my working sets back, but none of my projects. It is in the physical folder, but they somehow de-imported and de-associated themselves with the working sets. I know how to import them and reassociate them ( a long, tedious process, I have way to many projects for my own good ) , but how would I prevent this from happening in the future?
-Thanks

Projects don't have to reside in workspaces. In the simple case, you
can have your projects reside on a flash drive outside the workspace.
You can then add the projects to the workspace using import but leaving
them in the external location on the flash drive.
A better solution would be to learn how to use git and create
repositories on your different machines. You could use local or ssh
protocol to sync files between repositories. This allows you to have
versions of all your work and allows you to merge changes from different
systems.
