I started to work with a team that has a web application already in SVN. The folder structure is as follows:
\application
\index.jsp
\module1
\test1.jsp
\WEB-INF
\web.xml
I would like to use a Dynamic Web Project in Eclipse WTP 2.0.1, but this requires all web content to be in its own folder (with the default name of WebContent). Thus my workspace would need to look like this:
\application
\WebContent
\index.jsp
\module1
\test1.jsp
\WEB-INF
\web.xml
I have been unable to find a way to map from the directory structure in SVN to what is required in Eclipse using the SubEclipse and Subversive plugins.
My question, for those of you that use Eclipse WTP, is it standard practice to have a directory structure in the repository that conforms to what is required by the
IDE? It seems wrong for the IDE to dictate how the code in the repository is organized. Also, any ideas on how to "map" the SVN directory structure to what Eclipse WTP requires?
Thanks,
Joe
