Back up [message #216880]

I am using JBuilder 2006 and we are switching to Eclipse 5.0.

In JBuilder I can use the backup path that stores all the changes to the
files we made.

How can I do that in Eclipse?

Hi. I'm not sure I understand the question. Eclipse normally stores all
of the source files under the workspace and project folders, so if you
back up the entire workspace, you have everything. Eclipse keeps some
limited source file histories (for undo and file compare), but I'm not
sure where they are stored or how far back they go. I think if you want
to be able to restore to prior versions of programs, you need to use CVS
or Subversion. Others probably have more insight into this.

Also, the current version of Eclipse is 3.2.2, and 3.3 will be released
at the end of June.

Hope this helps. Mark Dexter
