Upgrade a Java Project to J2EE [message #189596]

Hi there,
I'm using the Calisto WTP 1.5 and I need to 'upgrade' a regular project
to a J2EE project, so I can use all the goodies with it.

I don't want to just create a new project and copy all artifacts. Why?
Because I have an extensive history in SVN and do not want to loose
this. Is there a good way to do this?

I have solved the issue the following way:
* Make sure your project is synchronized with SVN (that way you always
have a copy).
* Rename the project in question, lets say MyProject to MyProjectX using
the explorer (or your file system).
* Create a new MyProject in Eclipse and copy back all files from
MyProjectX, except the .profile.
* Refresh Eclipse and set the necessary classpath and other configuration.
* Synchronize your project with SVN, add the new files f you store those
in SVN

Good luck
