I am migrating to Eclipse from JBuilder X. It’s been a good experience except for version managing the workspace. We use Merant 8.
I’d like other developers to have the freedom to have their own Eclipse and plug-in settings and include their own plug-ins. I also need to ensure that any configuration changes to MyEclipse plug-in settings or project files are preserved.
Currently I version manage a set of properties that I’ve determined are necessary. This is about 32 files including the project files. This works ok so far, but it’s difficult to track changes in binary files and will likely cause odd issues when I leave out a changed file.
Is there a better way to do this? What are other people doing?
thank you,
Jason
