My projects changes location, and I need to tell Eclipse this. Today I just delete the project and import it from the new location.
But I have a lot of projects, they change location often and the paths a very complicated. I'd like a better way to manage this in Eclipse.
For example:
J:\iteration234_abc\foo\bar\baz\iffle\dizzle\Project
Only the root-folder changes (iteration-number and the idenfier "abc"). After that there are lot of folders. Many folders has tons of subfolders with similar names, which makes finding the folder with GUI time-consuming and very boring.
It would be so nice if I could just edit the path.
As you may have guessed: The J-drive is a network drive, provided by the source control system. The way to tell source control that I'm working on another itertion, is to continue my work in a different folder. My actual Eclipse workspace normally doesn't contain any projects.
