If you want to work on individual modules in the class library, just use the Import > Existing Project and navigate the file browser to any of the folders under 'modules'. Note - these settings assume that you have the Eclipse PDE and have a Target Platform of the assembled JRE built. We need to get a pre-defined target file committed somewhere in the SCM, just don't know where yet.
Another approach is to create a project and then create folders that link to the specific source folders that you want to work on. That's how I usually work on the DRLVM Java source. -Nathan On Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 12:20 PM, Manju Vijayakumar <manju.b...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thank you Regis.
