Workspaces
To run, Eclipse requires a workspace - a dedicated directory to store the files for your programming projects.
- This directory should be used and managed exclusively by Eclipse.
You can create multiple workspaces.
-
For example, you could have a workspace containing projects for a specific customer.
-
You might have a workspace for a particular project, which may consist of multiple sub-projects.
When you start Eclipse it will ask you to select the workspace you want to work in.
- Eclipse only opens one workspace at a time.
Drill¶
Launch Eclipse. In the Select a directory as a workspace dialog, change the Workspace: to /Users/YOURUSERNAMEHERE/SD/Java/workspace. Eclipse will create the workspace directory if it doesn't exist.
* Click Launch.
