How to import an existing project into Workplace in Eclipse?

Question

I am trying to follow the Eclipse instructions to create a Hello World SWT application. I have the following instruction:

Import the SWT project from the main menu through File> Import ... and select Existing projects in the workspace. Specify the archive file you are and click Finish. This will create the org.eclipse.swt project which we will need to compile and run the applications.

I have problems with this. In the File menu, I see "Import ...". When I click "Import ...", I do not see "Existing project in the workspace". Instead, I see "Select Import Source:", after which I see a text box. After that, I see a field with the following folders: General, CVS, Run / Debug, Tasks, Team, XML.

Can someone help me with this, requests?

Answer 1

You need to expand the general .

Answer 2

If you expand the "General" node (folder), you will see "Existing projects in the workspace" as an option. Select it and click "Next."

Answer 3

Eclipse has great search functionality on most of its important screens. Even if you don’t know where exactly, you can enter it and it will appear. In this case, enter "Existing" in the text box above the list and you will see what you are looking for.
