Hi,
I've got 2 projects which share some source files.
I put the shared files in a folder called common and did "Link Files to Project...".
This was okay until I checked out another copy of my source into a different location and found that I couldn't make the reference to the linked files relative to the project folder.
In other words, if you do "Link Files to Project" the project files contain full path references to the files.
Is this the correct way to include source files that aren't in the project folder?
If it is, is there a way to specify the files with relative paths?
(CCS V4.0.2.01003, I've just downloaded CCS V4.1 but haven't tried it yet.)
Thanks,
Matt
Matt,
Yes Eclipse likes to use full paths for linked files. It is possible to get past this. The following mediawiki topic shows how to do it.

Thanks John.
I would have preferred to specify a path relative to the project so that I could have multiple checkouts of the same project but at least I now understand what's possible and this makes it possible to share the project with other team members.
Thanks,
Matt
