RE: [cdt-dev] Importing Existing Code

I agree with Felipe.  I think import should be used when starting with a project file from a different IDE (e.g. Visual Studio, QT Creator, etc.).  I think of this case as Filipe does.

 

New Project -> with Existing sources

It makes sense to me as follows:

 

New Project -> with Existing sources

 

Import to me means like taking resources or something from a different environment into Eclipse CDT

but in this case it is just to not start from scratch and as you need a Eclipse project to work with Eclipse a

new project is a have to.

Excellent! Thanks.

 

One question I'm still struggling with is whether this is really an Import operation, since it imports code, or a New Project operation since it creates a new project, or maybe both. Anyone have thoughts on that?

That sounds great.  When we started using with Eclipse CDT we had difficulties understanding how to create a CDT project for existing sources.

 

The warning scared us but we tried and the project creation ended up working.

 

At that time we were trying Netbeans for C and the project creation for existing sources through the project wizard was almost straight forward.

 

Nevertheless we realized Eclipse CDT is much more powerful and reliable that Netbeans for C but so far harder to configure and less intuitive for starters.

 

I am willing to try this out.
