Hi Friends,

I am working with Linking of Resources in eclipse right now...

My requirement is i need to import some external files in to my local
workspace.

I am able to link an external folder to my project ... but when it comes
to linking of an external file i am getting an exception.

My action's run code is in this way:

FileDialog dialog=new FileDialog(Display.getCurrent().getActiveShell());
dialog.setFilterExtensions(new String[]{"*.hex"});
dialog.open();

IFolder folder = project.getFolder("ImportedFiles");
IFile file = folder.getFile(dialog.getFileName());
try {
if(!file.isLinked())
folder.createLink(new Path(dialog.getFilterPath()), IResource.NONE,
null);
} catch (CoreException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

Here i am able to link the external folder...

but concept of linking of external file is not working fine for me...

Could any body help me regarding this....

Regards,

Zakir
