Hi,
I'm working on an Eclipse project, and I sometimes use one computer to do
the work, sometimes a different computer. The two computers are both on
the same network. What is the easiest way for me to keep them in sync?
Right now, when one project is out of date, I'm just deleting it and
re-importing the newest version from the other computer. This is obviously
a hack method and I'd like to find a better way.
Thanks for any help,
John

It is not a supported or recommended setup for Eclipse - it wants the
workspace and Project contents to be on local storage. Eclipse performs
TONS of file IO during normal operation, and thus relies on a fast IO
pipe to operate smoothly.
I like the recommendation to use CVS, but another option is to archive
(zip, tar) the Project directory and copy it between the machines. Just
make sure to delete the old copy before un-archiving a newly moved copy.
HTH,
Eric
