eclipse - message opening a project [message #255258] Fri, 02 May 2008 04:55 Go to next message

Hi,
On eclipse 3.2 (and later, I believe, but I'm using eclipse 3.2), when I
open a project (right clicking on it -> open project) It asks me:
Question
Should referenced projects also be opened? (and yes or no buttons and a
check box to not ask again the next time).
I think both yes or no buttons do the same thing: they only
open my one project.
What are related projects and why does it present me this question?

Thanks

Best regards

S

Select 'Help' > 'About Eclipse SDK' in the main menu. The appearing
about dialog displays the exact version number.

> What are related projects
Projects may depend on each other. Projects dependencies are set up in
the Project Properties dialog (select the project, hit [Alt]+[Enter]).
Navigate to 'Java Build Path', Tab 'Projects'.

If the list is empty, your project does not have a related project. In
that case, your choice in the dialog really makes no difference.

> and why does it present me this question?
Because it might be that the project you are opening has dependencies to
other projects. If this is the case, it makes sense to open these
projects along with the dependent project as there would certainly be
compile errors because Eclipse cannot find the referenced classes in
closed projects.

If the dialog boy annoys you, you may want so select 'Remember my
decision' the next time it appears.

Hope that helps

Michael
