I am trying to import a project into eclipse. First time I imported into the workspace. Then it had an error about .classpath was readonly.
So I decided not to import into my workspace but to access where it resides on svn. So I tried to delete it.
Now when I import from another location it says it cannot be done because it exists in the workspace. This eclipse problem has happened to me many times before. Do I need to manually remove the files from the workspace now?
More lunacy now the import project dialog cannot be closed! It imported a tablet project and now says must click cancel (already done). Way to go eclipse team!
Looks like your Eclipse didn’t do a clean delete for your project. Before trying to import it again, close (or kill) Eclipse and go to this folder:
Look for a folder from the previous project (should have the same name). If there is one, delete it. Also delete any remains of the project from the workspace itself and try doing the Import again.
