How i am trying to approach this 1.first i created a Force.com project 2.then i copy given src(Ctrl+c) folder and paste(Ctrl+v) in to my project in eclipse 3. i added metadata components by right clicking on project Force.com >Add/remove metadata components

4.then i right click on my project Force.com >Deploy to server

i am getting failure error

Deploy Results:

File Name: applications/Rule.app Full Name: Rule Action: NO ACTION Result: FAILED Problem: In field: tab - no CustomTab named Rule__c found

File Name: objects/RuleAction_c.object Full Name: RuleAction_c Action: NO ACTION Result: FAILED Problem: manageruleactions does not exist or is not a valid override for action Edit.

can any one please tell a suitable path how to save the whole src folder code in development org

Hard to say exact steps. You'll have to keep trying while resolving the dependencies. How to deploy a Force ID app when all objects are referencing each other is a question about similar problem.

First one should be fairly simple. You might have applications/Rule.app but looks like you're missing tabs/Rule__c.tab. Easiest would be to go to your target environment and use Setup -> Create -> Tabs to create the tab for this object. Then the app deployment should work and if you want - you can download the tab definition file later.

Next two - try to initiate a deployment that would push both objects/RuleAction__c.object and pages/ManageRuleActions.page at the same time. If it still doesn't work - split your actions like in my answer to this similar question (temporarily comment out the body of VF page or remove the edit action override definition from the object file).
