I’m trying to transfer everything I’m working on in one eclipse JEE6 project with database to another eclipse program. I know I will have to reconfigure a lot and rebuild a lot of library files but what is the easiest way to transfer as much as I can?
You should export you eclipse project as an archive file. Then save the archive file to a thumb drive. Then import it back in your other machine’s eclipse instance. The database stuff (if you used eclipse to locally connect to a db and see schema info and such) is stored under
.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity\driverStorage.xml. So you can also copy that file over.File->Export->Archive Fileand then doFile->Import->Archive FileThe preferred & safer choice is to use a source repository (ie. svn, git, etc) & commit your project there and then check out the source from there.
