Migrating From NetBeans to Eclipse

Question

My company wants to migrate to Eclipse, I was wondering what options besides an Ant build are there to move our projects from Netbeans to Eclipse.

Answer 1

I just migrated a Netbeans 7.0 JSF web project to Eclipse. And it was easier than i would have imagined. What i did was:

1. List item
2. Clean and build my JSF application in netbeans
3. Close netbeans and open Eclipse(i use galileo)
4. Create a new Dynamic Web Application.
5. Right click on the new web application in project explorer and go to import then to .WAR file
6. It then ask whether i want to import any of the jar files(libraries) as projects and i do not select any and just click finish.
7. Copied my netbeans src(source) folder /src/java/ to the Eclipse src folder. e.g netbeansproject/medman/src/java/com to eclipseSpace/medman/src/
8. Next setup your server in Eclipse(i use tomcat 6.0).

And voila! it is done.
