Hi There,
I am trying to import an existing project into a workspace when running
in headless mode. I figured this would be a simple thing to do, but it
looks like the platform uses the ImportOperation class to do all of the
work, which is in the UI plugin! I would think that a simple resource
import should be non-UI specific. I understand there are complexities
in terms of overwrite queries, etc., but this should be doable without
UI code if desired. After all, org.eclipse.core.resources is not a
UI-specific plugin!
Is there not a non-UI way to simply import a project into a workspace
without basically re-writing ImportOperation, or am I missing something?
Thanks,
Mark.

Umm...I think I may have prematurely posted. It looks like the
ImportOperation is only used when importing existing projects from
zipfiles. It looks like creating a project description pointing to the
existing location, and then creating the project is all I need to do.
