Yeah I perfectly understand your point. You must have your reasons for your strategy, but try to give "maven eclipse" a shot some time.
Maybe you already know this stuff but here is how I did. You have the apache/ as your root, right ? In Eclipse when u right-click on a project in CVS to check it out, hit the "Check Out as" button instead. Then select that u want to check it out as Java Project. Then u can select the location where u want to check it out. And the from command line go into your project folder (like apache/Jakarta-turbine-fulcrum) and run " maven eclipse". And then just refresh the project from within the IDE. Rearranging those big projects in Eclipse is a big big big pain. Now its hell lot better.

Or > any tool or something. I usually prefer to check out from the command line and add my projects to Eclipse manually. I made an apache folder which is my Eclipse project root, and the I check out projects beneath: apache/ .classpath .project jakarta-commons/ ... jakarta-commons-sandbox/ ... ant/ ... But this may not be preferable for you -- I don't particularly like Eclipse's CVS handling and I do work with other editors as well. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
