Is there a way to import many eclipse projects at once? [message #157227] Tue, 04 May 2004 19:34 Go to next message

Hi, All.

I there a way to import many java projects at once given the existence of
the eclipse .project and .classpath files in the root of each project? I
have an existing directory structure with many projects.

Importing them by hand will be tedious. But it is easy to locate the
directories using the Unix find command.

A team project set is not a good solution. Loading from a project set will
fetch the projects from CVS, and will put the projects at the same
directory level. In my case it is important to preserve the relative
placements of these directories. I want to fetch the projects using the
CVS command line, to preserve releative paths between projects, and then
tell eclipse to import all the projects I just retrieved from CVS.

Any help would be appreciated.

Chris

Hi Chris,

Yes, it is indeed tedious. I have made a plugin for this exact purpose.
See http://eclipse-tools.sourceforge.net/projecttransfer .

Best regards,

Jesper

Thanks very much. Looks like a really useful plugin. Unfortunately, I'm
using 2.1 so I can't use it.

Hi Chris,

I'll take a look at how complex it would be to "backport" it to 2.1.x
(if I can find the time).

Best regards,

Jesper

Hi,

I have now released a version (v0.9.4) of the import/export plugin which
works with Eclipse 2.1.x to the SourceForge project
(http://eclipse-tools.sourceforge.net/projecttransfer). It is also
available on the update site (http://eclipse-tools.sourceforge.net/updates).

Best regards,

Jesper
