You can import Eclipse projects to Netbeans, but how can you export Netbeans project to Eclipse?

Hi, Petru.

Today I learned how to do this importation. Do you still need the response?

Hi, Peter and All. Thank you for the welcome!

Here is a little tutorial on "Importing projects from NetBeans to Eclipse".

Please try this:


PART I - NETBEANS

1) Open NebBeans.
2) Create a java project named "ToEclipse".
3) Build this project.

Then, NetBeans has created several folders. The important folders to us are (in my computer):

a) "c:\User\Almir\NetBeans\ToEclipse\dist"
b) "c:\User\Almir\NetBeans\ToEclipse\src"


PART II - ECLIPSE

1) Go to Eclipse.
2) Create a java project in Eclipse named "ToEclipse".

Then, Eclipse has created several folders. The important folders to us are (in my computer):

a) "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\bin"
b) "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\src"


PART III - WINDOWS EXPLORER

1) Go to Windows Explorer.
2) Copy the FILE "ToEclipse.jar" at "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\bin" folder.
3) Past it in "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\bin"
4) Copy the FOLDER "toeclipse" at "c:\User\Almir\NetBeans\ToEclipse\src" folder.
5) Past it in b) "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\src" folder.


PART IV - ECLIPSE

1) Go to Eclipse.
2) Press "f5"to refresh the view.
3) Verify that your project is there (under "ToEclipse/src/toeclipse").
4) Say "Oh! Yes! It works!".
5) Run the project.
6) Return to 3) how many times you want!


I hope that helps you!

Kind regards,

Hi,
While importing the Eclipse project to NetBeans I am getting
Message "Does not contain regular Eclipse workspace"
I did not get this message.

Could anybody can tell me the steps or some provide me some link.
So I can configure easily.
If possible than please mention the NetBeans version also.I am using NetBeans version 6.7

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Naran

Hi,
Is there a typo? In Step III you said to copy from "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\bin" and to paste it to "c:\Users\Almir\Eclipse\ToEclipse\bin". Same directory isn't it?
