Question

I use eclipse (Spring STS actually). I need quick access to two files:
– web.xml
– servlet-context.xml (spring config)

Every time I want to open the files, I need to find them and that takes time.

Is there a way to create a link on the root folder of a project? This way I can quickly access it?

Thanks!

One option is to use Ctrl+Shift+R and type the name of the file that you want to open.

You can also create a link to some file under the root of the project:

1. Right click the project and select New->File
2. In the New File dialog click Advanced and then select Link to file in the file system
3. Click Browse and select the file for which you want to have quick access
4. Click Finish and you are done
