A tool for converting JBuilder .jpx
project
files into Eclipse projects.
This Perl script converts a JPX file (and its associated .library
definitions into an Eclipse project (.classpath
and
.project
primarily). If the project is a J2EE web-app, it will
also create a .tomcatplugin
file which is used by
Sysdeo's Tomcat plugin
and an Ant build.xml
for packaging the WAR file.
Use
Currently requires Perl, but at some point may be changed to be an Eclipse plugin for direct importing of JPX files.
jpx2eclipse MyProject.jpx
Then, in Eclipse, select File > Import... > Existing Projects into Workspace and open the directory containing the JPX file.
Testing
The script has been tested, successfully, on:
- JBuilder 2005 & Eclipse 3.1 using cygwin
Please note that due to the nature of this script, I will not be able to take feature requests or bug reports unless accompanied by a patch. If, however, the script does work for you (by some weird freak of nature) then please let me know so I can update the above list.
