RE: [Pydev-users] Importing an Existing Package into PyDev

[Carroll, B. <Bar...@ps...>]

Fabio:

Thanks for your prompt reply.  I did not know about the manual before I =
received your post.  I have read through it now, but unfortunately I =
still don't know how to convert an existing Python package into a PyDev =
project. =20

My package is named encode. It is part of a (non-PyDev) project named =
symgen.  The file system hierarchy looks like this:

J:\My Documents\Projects\symgen
                         testfiles.py         (test case files)
                         encode\              (the package directory)
                                __init__.py
                                codefiles.py  (Python source code files)

(The encode folder is actually a shortcut to J:\My =
Documents\python\encode.  The python folder is our department's standard =
repository for Python development code, and is included in the =
PYTHONPATH list by a .pth file in C:\Python23.  A bit odd, I know, but =
it works and the details aren't important to the current problem.)

The first issues I need to solve are:

   1. Can I turn my symgen folder into a PyDev project folder,=20
      and if so, how?
   2. Can I use my existing __init__ file as PyDev's __init__ file,
      and, if so how?=20

Thanks in advance for any help you or other readers of this list can =
provide.  Meanwhile, I will forge ahead.  If I figure out anything =
useful, I'll post it here.

Regards,
