can I create a structure of a Project? [message #161754] Tue, 25 November 2003 14:51 Go to next message

hi

i'd like to know whether the following is posible or not.

I want to make a plug-in for building gt3 applications (globus toolkit 3
-> grid computing), and i would like to know if there is something similar
to a structure of a project. Any file where you can tell what kind of
files are supported by this kind of project, etc...

i have looked the .project file but doesn't seem to apport any interesting
information for what i want. And looking in the API i have found classes
like IProject that have information but aren't to be implemented

don't know hot to start. I have been thinking in making a wizard that
generates automatically those files wanted por this project. is this
correct?

thank you ;-)

P.D: sorry for my english. I'm not a native speaker

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do, but project natures sound
close to what you're looking for. You can associate a "nature" with a
project to indicate what sort of project it is. The nature is used in
determining the icon used in the navigation, and it can be used to
filter actions in the UI, among other things. Natures don't allow you
to alter the physical "structure" of the project, but perhaps I'm not
understanding what you mean by that. The following article gives a
brief introduction to natures:

thanks for answering. i think I will explain myself much better with an
example. What i want to know if it's possible is to create the concept of
a "project" as is used in others IDEs (JBuilder, C++ Builder, Visual
Studio, Borland Delphi, etc). That's it. for example to create a .dpr and
configure it as it would be in Borland Delphi.

What you've told me sounds fine and i will look at it better in the
weekend with more time.

If you understand me now better and know of a better solution please tell
me.

thank you

bye

Projects can be created programatically using the resources plugin API.
For more details, look in the platform plugin developer's guide >
programmer's guide > resources overview. You want code that looks
roughly like this:

IWorkspaceRoot root = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot();
IProject p = root.getProject("MyProject");
p.create(null);
p.open(null);
