Project Management

The Project Management area gives you an overview of your RapidClipse projects and organizes projects by default into six main areas (packages). Each entry in the Project Management section corresponds to one file. Thus, the name of each entry must be unique. Further packages can be created within each area to add an additional level of organization to the project, and these can use the same file names in alternative entries without any problem because they can be addressed uniquely using the package names.

The RapidClipse Project Management offers a simplified alternative to the complex standard Eclipse Project Explorer, which you can also use in RapidClipse.

Project Management and Workspace

All the RapidClipse projects are saved in a directory named Workspace. When you start RapidClipse, the projects in the Workspace are shown in the Project Management.

You can close projects in Project Management to improve the overview. The projects you close are no longer visible in the Project Management area but are still available in the workspace. This can be helpful when your project consists of multiple sub-projects.

  3. Click OK.

Delete project

  1. Right-click the project you want to delete.
  2. In the context menu, select Delete.
  3. If you want to delete the project even from your Workspace, select the Delete project contents on disk option.
  4. Click OK.


Note: 
  • Projects that you delete in Project Management remain available under Workspace.
  • Projects that you delete in Workspace can no longer be restored.
