Is it possible in Eclipse to have some kind of packages (sets of projects) when using CDT projects?

We have separated our software in such packages and use VS2005 with .sln files for the Windows parts. At the moment I see only two ways to manage the projects in Eclipse:

  • Put all together into a single workspace and loose the package ordering
  • Use separate workspaces (one per package) and store my custom key/syntax/... settings in each workspace (and keep them synchronous!)

The main reason for separating the projects is that you do not need to compile (or check if compilation is needed which also takes a while) all base projects if you are working in a depending package.

I would appreciate a third solution without the disadvantages of my two current solutions :-)

Sounds good! I will test it as soon as I have time for it!(I once saw the working sets but didn't get a hand on them but maybe with your tips...)

I didn't found them in the menu you mentioned but by using the triangle button and "Select WorkingSets" I was able not only to select them but also to create them and assign projects.

Hmmmm... there doesn't seem to be a Window → Working Sets → Edit... menu in CDT 6.0. Any other suggestions?
