Copy and paste? Drag and drop? That is how I typically add files to a project. If I drag a file from Explorer to the desired package/directory in Eclipse it will copy it to the "real" directory and add it to the project where I can then place it under source control and compile as normal. This works for both C++ and Java. -- John Gaughan
