Hi,

I´ve got a problem.
A program should create one or more PlugIn-Projects underneeth.

So I want to create a PlugIn-Project without using the wizard.
The only parameters I want to set, are the project name and the
targetDirectory.

The project should only contains the src/bin folders, the plugin.xml and
the buildProperties..

If u have done this before, please let me know..

The following will create and open a project for you. Creating the
folders and files inside is left as an exercise only because this
example doesn't do that.

// open default project
String defaultProject=Messages.getString("_defaultProjectName");
IWorkspaceRoot root= ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot();
IProject project= root.getProject(defaultProject);
if (!project.exists() )
try {
project.create(null);
} catch (CoreException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
if (!project.isOpen())
try {
project.open(null);
} catch (CoreException e2) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e2.printStackTrace();
}

The 'Contrbituing to Eclipse' book has a fairly complete example of
creating Java projects programatically that include the nature and
builder pieces.
