Hi,
I'm a newbie, and have created my first Eclipse Workspace and Project,
let's call it C:\Dev\MyTableCore. I set everything up OK, imported
sources, and got a clean build. great.
I now wish to move this "core" project, to a new directory:
C:\Dev\MyTable\MyTableCore - I wish to add an additional level of
directory hierarchy, so I can add other projects that depend on it, like
example programs.
I tried to use the "move project" command from the File menu, but got an
error that says "C:\Dev\MyTable overlaps the workspace location C:\Dev". I
cannot determine what this means, and things I see on the newsgroup don't
make sense. Can someone please give me a few pointers about what's going
on, where I can find project / workspace management rules, etc?
thank you,
JP Lee

I think what is happening is this:
Your original project location was C:\Dev.
You want to move it to C:\Dev\MyTable.
But C:\Dev\MyTable is part of C:\Dev.
I suggest two possible solutions. First move your project to somewhere
outside of C:\Dev and then move it under C:\Dev.
or
Remove the project from eclipse (without removing the sources), create
the file structure you want outside of eclipse, and then recreate the
project inside of eclipse from the new location.
