Easy way to rename a project in android

I have downloaded an Android project. To avoid name conflicts I want to move it from com.android.zzz to com.my.zzz. At the moment I'm using Ecplise with the standard android toolkit. Is there a better way to do the rename than to go manually through the files?

As usual, by pressing F2 on package name, you can rename or change the package name, and also by Right-clicking and then select Rename option, you can change or rename the Package name.

When you press F2, it will show you the dialog box as:

alt text

In this dialog, dont forget to check "Update references" check box because by making "check" to this check-box, it will make changes to all the references of the package which are referred by other components of project.

Hope this helps you,

This is basic IDE refactoring.

Right click the package in Eclipse -> Refactor -> Rename.

You will probably want to check all the options that come up in the Rename dialog.

Another option would be to right click the class files in Eclipse -> Refactor -> Move.
