How to view filesystem in Eclipse PDT

Question

I've been using Aptana standalone for a few months. I do a lot of quick fixes on various servers via Windows network share, and the Aptana File view is perfect for that.

Aptana has a "File view" that allowed me to navigate my entire filesystem and quickly open files to make edits.

I'm being pressured into using "proper" Eclipse PDT again (I need the Zend debug & preview capability that Aptana just doesn't handle) but I still need to be able to do my quick edits too.

I've looked and looked, but I can't figure out how to do open a network share and browse it in Eclipse - unless I build a project for each folder I open. Any ideas?

Answer 1

I thing you can get plugin to do that

RSE seems to be able to handle ftp, after for windows share I don't really know but I am pretty sure you can find something.

Also you can install aptana in PDT that's would probably be the best solution for you since you are used to aptana.
