project file? [message #238780] Thu, 25 October 2007 10:50 Go to next message

Hi

I have created a java project in Eclipse on my machine - compiled, run etc.
How do I transfer this project to my colleague so he can work on it on his
computer?

I can of easily copy all the source files, but there does not seem to be a
"project file" which defines the java package structure and what-have-you
for the project.

I can find a ".project" and ".classpath" file, but these do not seem to be
what I am looking for.

It seems it is necessary for my colleague to manually create a "project"
himself, and add all the source files, libraries etc.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Peter

For this you can use export/import project wizard. Right click on the
project, then export, go through wizard and give your coworker zip file.
He has to import it.

Regards,
Chris

The .project and .classpath files are what define the project to Eclipse.
You need to get these to your colleague. If you plan on working on the
project together, I would suggest some form of source code managment
software (CVS or SVN). Add all the source for the project including the
..project and .classpath files to the tool.

Hi - actually we do use SVN, and all the source, libs, .classpath &
..project files are checked in.

However, I have made some extensive changes to the project, and when my
colleague "updates" from SVN, these changes are not reflected in the
project he sees in Eclipse.

That is, the source files are there in the file-system, but as I have for
example changed package names, Eclipse refuses to load the files into its
editor.

I can see now that the .project and .classpath files do indeed seem to
define the project, so I'll see if I can identify the problem...

Thanks,
Peter
