Hello,

I have project which was checked out by previous version of eclipse into
directory '/home/myproject'. This direcotry isn't under main eclipse's
directory. When I install new version of eclipse, I don't use the previous
workspace and configure files (I remove all files under eclipse's
directory and re-install new but I don't touch any files in
'/home/myproject'). How do I make that project available in new version of
eclipse without checking out new from server.

Regards,
wit

Import the project from the File menu.

BTW. Did you know that you can place your workspace in a directory other
then the default under the eclipse root. This way you can install the
new version of eclipse and point it at that directory and all of your
projects are there, just as you left them.
