I am writing a plug-in that creates projects from folders already existing
on the local drive. I want the project to have packages set up inside of
it from the folders inside of the top folder. I have the ability to get
all the paths of the fodlers and the names of them also. I would like the
packages to have names that correspond to the path of these folders.
Unfortunately, I am having a lot of trouble creating these packages. I
was wodnering is someone could tell me the best way to create these
packages. Any code would be helpful.

This is a jdt question. (eclipse.tools.jdt newsgroup).

Well as far as I know - I am not an jdt expert :) - the folders become
packages by adding the root folder to the source path of the
project. Therfore there is no way to convert a folder in a package.

Remember I only have some basic knowledge. Maybe there are additional
ways to create packages. I dont know.

Bye,
