There are the `project` and `classpath` files that control the definition of the project (name, type, builders, etc.) and its dependencies, respectively. These are the main ones a project needs. Then there are the ones in `.settings` that are used by plugins. The "core" Java plugins use them to define endcoding, compiler versions etc. Gradle can derive most of these, but it needs to be set up correctly. Frankly, I don't know how IntelliJ understands that file. > So, is there a better way to do that? For reference, in the JDK source code, > there seem to be no Eclipse files at all. Fixing the build file is the better way. The JDK doesn't keep Eclipse files, which is why you get a lot of errors when you first get it. which you need to fix manually. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1925#issuecomment-5705128404
