I am part of a team using Eclipse 3.1M6 to develop a large Java project.
We have separated out the packages in to separte projects thus allowing us
to enforce our package dependency rules using the Eclipse project
references.
We are using Telelogic CM Synergy as the project repository and have
separate workspaces for development and testing for each of our code
branches, this currently equates to each developer having 6 workspaces
each with 16 projects.
When we take on a new developer or change the workspace structure we are
forced to do a great many project imports. The .project and .classpath
files are version controlled and the root directory of all the projects
are in the same parent directory, the .metadata directory is not version
controlled.
Is there an easier way to achieve setting up a new workspace?
