Import Project Dialog Box
Use the Import Project dialog box to import a project into any portfolio for which you have write permission.
- Project File
- The path name of the project file you want to import, including the extension .prj. This project can be a project that either you or someone else created. The project does not have to be in a portfolio.
- Create by
- Field in which you specify whether you want to copy a project into a directory or import it by reference. If you click the Copy radio button, the WorkShop copies the project files into the destination directory. If you click the Reference radio button, the WorkShop stores only the project's file name and maintains a link between the project in the portfolio and the project files. If you are importing a project by reference, the remaining fields in the dialog box are grayed out.
- Destination Directory
- The absolute path name of the directory in which you want to store the project files. For clarity, you should store the project files in their own directory.
- Include Source
- Field in which you specify whether or not to copy the .java source files into the destination directory.
- New Project Name
- The name of the project as it appears in your portfolio.
- Command buttons
- Import--Imports the project into the current portfolio and adds the project name to the Project => Choose, Edit, and Remove submenus.
- Cancel--Closes the dialog box without applying your changes
- Help--Displays help on the Import Project dialog box
