To import an existing Eclipse project

To load existing Eclipse projects in the IDE, you need to import them into the Eclipse workspace.

To import a project stored on your local machine or on a remote machine when you are using the network file system (NFS):

  1. Click File > Import > General.
  2. Click Existing Projects into Workspace.

    You can edit the project directly in its original location or choose to create a copy of the project in the workspace.

If you are importing a remote project and you use the remote file system (RSE):

  1. Before you start the import, Visual COBOL create a remote connection to be used to access the remote server.

    This must be the connection that was used to create the remote project.

  2. Click File > Import > Micro Focus > Remote Projects.
  3. Click Browse.
  4. Set Connection to the appropriate connection name.
  5. Select the directory that contains the projects you want to import.
  6. Click Finish.

    This imports the projects into the current workspace and loads them in the IDE.

Restriction: It is not possible to import remote mainframe projects using RSE.
