Importing C++ project into Eclipse on Linux [message #146041]

Hi all,
I just installed Eclipse (on Linux) hoping to use it to edit/navigate my
existing C++ code. I followed the simple directions for creating a new
project and pointing the contents folder to the root of my source, but
when I click Finish, I get the following errors:

Errors occurred while refreshing resources with the local file system.
PI::Dashboard::Factory.3pm is an invalid resource name.
PI::DataForwarder::Factory.3pm is an invalid resource name.
PI::DataForwarder::FileDownloader.3pm is an invalid resource na

etc.

Anyone has any advice on what's going on and how to fix it?

thanks in advance!
Jane

There are files in your directory that Eclipse doesn't like. Eclipse is
enforcing windows naming conventions so names like
PI::Dashboard::Factory.3pm
does not work.

Thank you for responding!
I'm not sure where it got the PI::Dashboard::Factory.3pm from though.
I do have a file a few directories down that looks like this:
my_root_directory/.../.../PI/Dashboard/Factory.pm
where ... is just names of directories.

So I don't see why it should choke. Does it not like the ".pm"
extention? Is there a work around?

Thanks!
