| Creating a web project around an existing file structure? [message #226823] |

I've spent a day and a half researching this and I'm stumped - I found
lots of discussion about it from 3-4 years ago, but nothing recent.
I have an existing project with a source directory and a jsp directory. I
want to create an Eclipse project to work on the code.
If I just create a web project at the shared root of the two directories,
it creates a project with all of those files but it doesn't parse the java
files into packages and it doesn't seem to treat the jsp files as anything
special.
I found old topics talking about editing the .wtproperties files but even
when I create a new Web project that file never seems to be created.
Has this problem been solved or does WTP require mimicking its desired
directory structure?
Thanks,
Mike

Plain old Java projects are pretty flexible this way, but you are
probably right about Dynamic Web Projects not being so flexible. There
is some latitude on naming and structure, but I always follow what the
current version of Eclipse WTP I'm using wants to use.
Sorry for this non-answer.
