Visual Studio can easily create a project template from an existing project by exporting project template and it will magically appears in visual studio template directory and in IDE.
Does Eclipse have such a feature ?
At this point, I don’t know of a way to do this. But the simplest hack I can think of would be to export an existing project and keep a folder somewhere of templates you could quickly import, rename, and go on with.
Looks like there have been some aborted attempts at doing this in the past – see sourceforge.net/projects/protewiz/ – but it doesn’t look like that project’s been updated in over a year.
And it looks like CDT has some project template facilities (see help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.isv/guide/projectTemplateEngine/Howtodeveloptemplates.html and help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.isv/guide/projectTemplateEngine/Howtoregistertemplates.html).
Hope that helps a bit.
