Question

I am developing an Eclipse wizard that will be used for creating a project. I can create the folder hieararchy but I cannot create a package under “src” folder. I found this answer How to create packages (folders) in an Eclipse project via plugin here. However, it does not solve my problem. When I create a folder under “src” folder, eclipse does not recognize it as a package. How can I do this?

Answer 1

Try this using JDT API as below.

private void createPackage(IProject project) throws JavaModelException {
   IJavaProject javaProject = JavaCore.create(project);
   IFolder folder = project.getFolder("src");
   // folder.create(true, true, null);
   IPackageFragmentRoot srcFolder = javaProject
       .getPackageFragmentRoot(folder);
   IPackageFragment fragment = srcFolder.createPackageFragment(project.getName(), true, null);
}
