Eclipse question-where did my projects go?

Question

hi,
i just upgraded to Eclipse 3.1. I set the workspace to the same folder as before, but when
I bring up the new program it does not detect any of my projects. Any advice for a man with
this type of problem? thanks

Answer 1

thanks for the reply. i have been working on this all
day
with a little bit of success, but i am still not
finished.
Is there any difference to eclipse between classes in
packages and not? I have a project called 'LOG' that
is
included in a certain other project, but NONE of the
classes in the latter project can see any of the
classes in
the LOG project. it is so frustrating since there
e seems to
be no rhyme or reason to it, other classes can see
the
LOG contents.
In 'project properties', you can add a 'dependent' project. That project's source, class and JAR files will then be included in the target project.
Also, i did notice one problem i had was that in
this new
release of eclipse they added a 'src' and 'bin'
folder to
each project folder, presumably to keep your class
and
java files seperate. I had to tell each project to
look in its
root directory for that stuff. Anyways, it works on
some but
not on all. Any other advice ?
For a web application, you source files should go in 'src' or 'source'. Your class files should go in WEB-INF/classes. I'm not sure what you mean by 'root'. You should have packages, unless your application is extremely small.
any advice is appreciated, i am at my wits end! thanksNever fear. IDE's are supposed to make things easier, not harder. You'll get the hang of it soon.
