How do I import an existing project in eclipse (latest). I have downloaded a project from git repo. It is a legacy Java web application. Project directory structure:
Myapp
-.settings
.jsdtscope (added in my local)
org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs (added in my local)
org.eclipse.wst.common.component (added in my local)
org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml (added in my local)
org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.superType.container (modified in local from repo contents)
org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.superType.container(modified in local from repo)
-project
settings
.project (It is xml file with <projectDescription> <buildSpec>....)
-src
com.abc.xyz
core
model
service
util
-testsrc
-web
html
js
jsp
images
WEB-INF
classes
application.xml
applicationContext.xml
web.xml
-build.xml
I tried to import the project in Eclipse in various ways, and it's always imported incorrectly. For example, when import as:
Existing Project into workspace
File System
For option 1 and 2 there is one src folder containing all the packages and code as expected, except core
src com.abc.xyz model service util But, then there is another package created with src.com.abc.xyz.core (no idea why this is happening) due to which jsp pages are not able to find java classes in core
Projects from folder or archive - issue is web folder is not imported at all.
Please let me know is there any way to import this manually and run this on tomcat using Eclipse
