Where are the config files? [message #153935] Tue, 27 December 2005 18:37 Go to next message

A handful of questions regarding WTP 1.0; answers to *any* would be
deeply appreciated:

When I create a new Dynamic Web Project, what configuration files are
created? I see the following:

..settings/
.component
org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs
org.eclipse.jst.common.project.facet.core.prefs
org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml
..classpath
..project

Are there others? Are all of the config files located within the
project directory? If not, where are the others?

Are there any project settings that are specified in places *other* than
the config files for the project? If so, what and where?

Is there a way to recreate config files for an existing project?

Which file stores the definition of the "Web App Libraries" special
object for a project?

Are there any config files used in WTP 0.7 that should *not* be present
in 1.0 projects?

Many many thanks to anyone who can shed any light on any of these....

Hi,

From what I gathered playing around with the config files, it looks like
the minimal set of files you need are

..component , and
org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml

For a dynamic web project. Besides, a new facet nature is added to .project
file
<nature>org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.nature</nature >

File "org.eclipse.jst.common.project.facet.core.prefs" is being used to
store container related stuff, though not sure what all it can store. I am
actually looking for a definitive resource for changes to the format in WTP
1.0 myself.

Would be great if one of the WTP devs could provide more details on it.

Regards, recreating of config files. I am using maven-eclipse-plugin to
generate eclipse + wtp project files.

Cheers,

Rahul
