Import a project into another imported project

Question

I found this statement in the help of a project that I want to import it named "storm- election"

This is a simple demo app based on the storm-starter project. https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-starter.

So, I imported storm-starter project successfully. How can I import storm-election project?

Can I import a project on another imported project ?

Answer 1

You cannot create a project under any project, like you create folder(s) under folder, folder(s) under project, file(s) under project and file(s) under folder.

All projects in a workspace are siblings no child and parent relationship exists between projects.

I am not able to see storm-election project in the link provided, but you can import this project in the same way as you imported storm-starter project.

Answer 2

Eclipse 4.5 (starting from Mars M5) will include a mechanism that allows to nested projects under their parent one. You can already give it a try by accessing the latest snapshot build of Eclipse Platform (which is a subset of the IDE, but which contains the change) http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/N20150124-1500/ , when Mars M5 is ready, you'll be able to access from http://eclipse.org/downloads a full featured IDE which also contains this feature.
