I’m playing with Eclipse. I’ve seen recommendations not to push to VCS anything from workspace directory, only the projects themselves. However this means that when building a development environment from scratch, you need to create a workspace and manually import all projects you need.
Is there any shortcut? Visual Studio uses solution files which have a list of projects, is there anything similar in Eclipse?
My projects usually are in python, javascript, C++ and so on… so I’d like to avoid anything language-specific.
You can use the
File->Export->Team Project Setto share your projects with others in the team so that they can set up the projects in their workspaces by performingFile->Import->Team Project Set. An official step by step instruction (using CVS) on this can be found here. A video tutorial using svn is available here.
