If I have imported a project into the workspace, and when I went through
the import wizard but did not select the properties correctly (it should
have been Java but was not) is there any other way other than changing the
project and the .classes files under this project.

It would be nice to be able to change this project characterisitc if a
mistake was made.

Thanks.

The only way to add the Java builder and Java nature to a project is to edit
the .project file and add:

<buildSpec>
<buildCommand>
<name>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder</name>
<arguments>
</arguments>
</buildCommand>
</buildSpec>
<natures>
<nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature>
</natures>

Please enter a feature request (against Platform UI) if you feel there
should be an easier way to do it.
