Eclipse: Open Existing Directory in Editor
Date: 2016-02-04 |
**Problem: **I have a project I’ve been working on in a folder on my computer. I now want to open that same folder in Eclipse, but it’s not an Eclipse Project. How do I get these files inside the Eclipse editor?
**Solution: **To open an existing file system in your Eclipse editor:
- Open Eclipse
- Got to File > New > Project…
- Select General > Project
- Enter a Project name
- Deselect “Use Default Location”
- Hit Browse and select the folder your files/project is in
- Hit finish
