Just a couple of remarks, probably not yet the solution:
(a) Eclipse requires the project directories to be direct subdirectories
of the workspace. So, your idea of subgouping won't work.
(b) To import, move the projects outside the workspace, then it should
work (but I havn't imported projects yet with 3.1 M6).
(c) Corrupted files: The only files that would harm being corrupt would
be the metadata and -java files. For the .java files, you can easily
test it with a simple text editor. Same applies in general to the
metadata files, though, they might me more difficult to read in plain
text. The .class files will be rebuilt on the first compile, so you can
simply delete them.
(d) You can force rebuild the workspace, if I remember it correctly, by
deleting the .metadata directory in your workspace directory. (but save
it somewhere else before you try!!!) But this will make you lose all
your editor and other settings for eclipse (they are stored in the
..plugins subdirectory. Just in case, there should also be hints on this
in the platform newsgroup and in the FAQ.
Hope this helps,
Kai

Kai,
thanks for your reply.
So far I could determine by other test that none of the control files is damaged.
A partial solution would be,
- to create a project under d:\dev\tst\
- exclude it form the BuildPath
-- then for every TestProjX in dev\tst
- add \dev\tst\TestProjX\src as source folder on the BuildPath
- set a specific output folder to \dev\tst\TestProjX\bin
....drawback this leaves .class and .projects files for TestProj1 under \dev\tst\.
.... and its a tedious manual setup
Looking at it from the other side, this was caused by by the aim of
- having one single .metatdata for all projects, i.e. same syntax colors, code formatter
- subgrouping a multirude(:-O) of minor projects in one sub-folder within one workspace
Any suggestions for a better solution?
Cheers,
Lophiomys
