Suppose one already has a complicated project directory structure, How do you use the same set of source files inside Eclipse. Without having to copy source files to a new Workbench location ?

you can reference an external directory outside the workbench as a source or output directory.
That's what I always do, separating data from programs (they're always on different drives, sometimes different computers).

Actually you don't even need to do this - the project doesn't need to reside in the workspace. You should be able to simply "import" the existing folder structure.

Doesn't that make a copy of the contents (preserving the directory structure) into the workbench directory rather than just using the imported files?

Yes - sorry, confused it with "import existing project into workspace"...
