I installed Eclipse to patch a Drupal module and I followed instructions as on a Drupal instruction page namely,

To apply patches to code using Eclipse:

1. Menu > windows > open perspective > others > team synchronizing
2. Open the patch file, select all text and copy it to clipboard (Ctrl+ C)
3. Menu > project > apply patch
4. Select clipboard, click next, select the file you want to patch, click finish or next to setup patching options.

The problem I had was that at step 4, I did not see any file to select to patch: no files and no file browse buttons.

Please how do i 'select the file you want to patch'.

Thanks.

Which Drupal instruction page? Have you asked in Drupal's forums?

The system didn't allow me to post the link to the instruction page. I try pasting it again, drupal.org/node/60179

But outside this being a Drupal module, how would one patch any file with Eclipse?
