Opening c files in eclipse

Still, while Eric may well say that will suit his needs, I know others who will say it just doesn't, really. It solves one problem accessing files from within CFE without need for projects.

But what it doesn't solve is for the same reasons Eric outlined the need or preference to use the operating system file explorer to find files. Or maybe folks have shortcuts defined for them.

They just may have many instances where they wish to open a file from outside of Eclipse The fact that Eclipse will open an entirely new Eclipse instance each time just mystifies them--and keeps many from using the tool at all.

Yes, "if Java programmers needed to do this, then Eclipse would do it already". Let's just take consolation that it's been added to the list of things to consider. Since it's really an Eclipse issue, not a CFE one, it may not be easily solved. I've come to accept that fact, myself. Still, it would just help a whole raft of people for whom this is a pretty significant detriment to getting into CFE.

I understand that Eric's files aren't in projects now As far as double clicking a file from the OS You both are not the only ones who struggled to come to grips with Eclipse. I tried it, went back to dreamweaver At least CFeclipse was younger then and when I made the switch fully and embraced its power. So much power Now as has been pointed out, there are developers who prefer to use OS based search tools.

Lastly, there shouldn't be a reason to keep source files outside of your projects. If you are keeping source files outside of your projects, you are doing it wrong with the exception of linked folders for less common cases. If you really want to bust some balls head on over the Eclipse bug site - you'll likely find more convincing arguments as well. You're right, it has a lot of things that make it I can already tell indispensable.

I particularly like the outline view. Today I created one project per server with a single linked folder. I think I can almost live with that. I miss being able to sort by change date, but that's a small thing. This is a very helpful newsgroup by the way.

Thanks to everybody. It's another thing I've missed, for sure, since I preferred to keep files in descending date order most recently updated first in the "other" CFML editors I've used. I missed that at first - but now all my files live in SVN - so I don't really care about dates - I care about version - and the Subclipse plugin does show me the version in the Navigator. I like the "Workbench" term used in Eclipse. If I go look out at my workbench it's covered in tools. Screwdrivers, hammers, wrenches, etc.

Now if I need to fix something on my motorcycle - I park the motorcycle next to the workbench so I have ALL my tools nearby. But if I need to fix something small in the house - I don't drag my workbench inside with me - I pick up a screwdriver and carry it in.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Re: Eclipse Permission Denied [message is a reply to message ] Sun, 14 April Ray Leonard Messages: 2 Registered: April I found the solution, it looks like I had 'Application Experience' service disabled, in an attempt to have a faster boot up.

I turned it back on and this seems to have fixed the problem. I don't know how that service stops it from running though. Eclipse Permission Denied [message ]. Ray Leonard Messages: 2 Registered: April Okay, so I run the program once and its fine and dandy, however when I change the code and save, it won't run, now I know that you may suggest 'you have to close the running program', as a matter of fact, it is closed. Re: Eclipse Permission Denied [message is a reply to message ].

I found the solution, it looks like I had 'Application Experience' service disabled, in an attempt to have a faster boot up. Can you please answer me where that option is?? I haven't find Application experience option any where?? Joe Breher Messages: 20 Registered: September How can I open an arbitrary file in Eclipse's Editor pane?

From the file menu, I select 'Open File'. I select main. It doesn't do this for other apps. How can I resolve this?

Of course there is. Just don't use absolute paths in your configuration. Make them relative to some environment variable instead — jasal. Dzyann I just updated the instructions. If all paths are relative including the compiler settings, etc! Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Improve this answer. Oh, I tried doing that at first, but it wasn't working, I think maybe there was something wrong with my workspace. What does that do? Does it copy my existing.

The project files will be copied to the workspace only when you select that option in the import dialog. I imported as you said, than what?

How do I make the Makefile or build them?
