eclipse - lost project

Thread view: 
aotemp@hotmail.com - 20 Dec 2005 18:37 GMT
Hi,

I have been working on a project in eclipse.  I decided to back up the
directory that I was working on by duplicating the directory with a
date on the folder...

The problem was that I accidentally renamed the folder, instead of
duplicating it.

When I opened up eclipse, the project was listed as not found... DUH!
So I recopied the folder back to the original structure that it was in
for eclipse.  Then reopened eclipse.

Oddly enough, the project still is not found!  The directory structure
is in place!  Is there some easy way to correct this?

thanks

I had this problem once before(I just had a project not found, not any
of the renaming stuff)

I simply enabled viewing hidden files, created a new folder in the
eclipse workspace folder, and recopied everything from the renamed
folder to the new one I created.

If that doesn't work, go into eclipse and create a new project, copy all
the files from the renames folder.  This will create a new .classpath
and .project file, which is essentially what is messed up.
