[news.eclipse.tools.jdt] Programatically create eclipse project

Hi,

Could anyone give some lead on how to programatically create eclipse project in a workspace?

Our CVS repository for java source code is not organized for working in any IDE. It's for an environment with only notepad and ant.

If I look at it from Eclipse IDE's view, there's a project node in the CVS repository for the whole product, and 30+ (still growing) modules are dumpped in the project node as sub-tree.

When I use Eclipse, I check out the project(cannot check out as java project, it's not organized that way) for the product. And then I create java project for each individual module, link source code directory to the checked-out project, define project dependency, define libraries or add jar files to projects for modules, and etc. etc. These are all manual work. I am looking for a way to automate this. (Reorganizing the CVS is not in anyone's interests. Together is used for some of the modules, cannot get rid of it yet)

Thanks,
Harry
