We're using Eclipse 3.3 and Subclipse 1.2.3 (latest updates as of this
posting) to manage a large project broken into multiple projects.

Our main project uses files from various other projects via linked
resources. This works great on my machine. When I go to share the
workspace (via a Team Project Set) with another developer, the linked
resources are not available to them. Their "General->Workspace->Linked
Resources" list is empty under "Window->Preferences".

Short of making them type these in every time there's a change or we add
a new developer, what can I do?

Is there a plugin or hack to provide an import/export feature similar to
the one available for User Libraries?

Like I said in the subject, this is a MAJOR issue for us.

Thanks in advance!

Scott

Linked resources are normally used to link to things outside your
workspace, not to other projects in your workspace. You can use project
dependencies to setup relationships between projects. On the
Properties->Java Build Path->Projects. You can add dependencies on
other projects in your workspace. Your dependent will have access to
all classes in the other project.

If this does not provide you with what you need, then you might be able
to make things work better by using a Variable to define the link.
Point a variable at the root of where the project files will be on each
workstation. When defining the link, use the Variable button and the
extend field to point to the resource you are linking to. If all links
use the same variable, your teammates will only need to define that
variable location in their workspaces.
