file organization (directory structure)

This is somewhat of a preference thing, but can anyone
post how they setup their directories for source and compilation.
i.e:
/projects/myproject1/ main dir
/projects/myproject1/src source files
/projects/myproject1/resourse resource (image, config) files
etc..
something like that.. ?
where do you put your class files
how do you package everything if you are going to distribute
it all.
thanks

I generally put all class files in the root directory of the project. \projects\myProject\
I put any images together. \projects\myProject\Images\
I also group together text/config files. \projects\myProject\config\
The only text file I allow in my root directory of the project is the one I use for the manifest.

thanks

so when you compile you just compile everything to the
root dir?

Hi Ken,
The following setup works well for me:
\javadev\
\javadev\src
\javadev\src\project1
\javadev\src\project2
...etc
All the .java files have package names and are kept in their respective 'src' directory.
When compiling, start in 'javadev' and use 'javac -d . src\...'
The .class files end up in directories matching their package names. Note, the package names can be whatever you want; don't have to match the '\src\project\' names. And if you do a new version, ie 'src\project1\v1' you can just copy the original source over to the new directory; make your changes and compile. Don't have to change package names so if you mess things up it's easy to recompile your original and get back to working code.
