At a minimum there will be a .project file. I then just copy these files to the projects outside Eclipse, delete the dummy project from Eclipse workspace and then import. Of course you can also just copy the files from an existing project you have somewhere. Most of these files are pretty obvious if you open them in a text editor. > **** > > **c) **Whether Subclipse helps with this? > Subclipse cannot help with stuff you do outside Eclipse.

For SVN 1.6, you can install Subclipse 1.6.x. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ http://subclipse.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=1047&dsMessageId=2990305 To unsubscribe from this discussion, e-mail: [[email protected]].
