I am trying to importing the project to eclipse through programmatically. I dont want to use UI mode.
Below is the code I used for importing the project:
IProjectDescription description = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().loadProjectDescription( new Path("PROJECT_PATH/.project"));
IProject project = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getProject(description.getName());
project.create(description, null);
project.open(null);
I'm getting only the project folder along with .location file
, .markers.snap
file and .syncinfo.snap
files, but I am not getting the source folder and etc.
Use org.eclipse.ui.wizards.datatransfer.ImportOperation
Try something like this:
IOverwriteQuery overwriteQuery = new IOverwriteQuery() {
public String queryOverwrite(String file) { return ALL; }
};
String baseDir = // location of files to import
ImportOperation importOperation = new ImportOperation(project.getFullPath(),
new File(baseDir), FileSystemStructureProvider.INSTANCE, overwriteQuery);
importOperation.setCreateContainerStructure(false);
importOperation.run(new NullProgressMonitor());
You're probably missing a line with
description.setLocation(new Path("/absolute/path/to/project/folder"));
Your code seems to be fine. What do you exactly mean by you couldn't get the source folder? Have you tried to refresh the project?
project.refreshLocal(IResource.DEPTH_INFINITE, new NullProgressMonitor());
