Building an Eclipse FAQ

Developing Android apps using Eclipse with android adt.

Eclipse is meant for professionals. I want to understand how to use Eclipse, but I don't understand how all the files interact.

Will edit as questions are answered.
(Bookmark if you are a generous teacher, or a struggling Eclipse user!)

****UNANSWERED_QUESTION(S)****
None at the moment!

****ANSWERED_QUESTION(S)****
(Q1) Can anyone tell me a way to remove the project from the package explorer, and bring it back at my convenience?

(A1@Post2: uchat) If you have large project, create a new workspace for that project. Each workspace should contain only related projects.



Also, if someone is amazing with android eclipse development, I would love a tutor to help me understand the things that should be second nature. For example all these files and folders are pretty foreign to me. At the moment I don't even know where the java code goes! I am sure I can figure it out, but the point being I really don't know what I'm looking at and would like to understand, rather then following some walk through guide that inevitably fails me when I attempt to use that knowledge on my own development.

Just looking for a rapid fire question session that would take maybe 30 minutes. We could use any method of contact you prefer, Skype, Google message, Facebook message etc.

I don't expect to need more then eclipse file management/packaging/projects (somehow not explained in university) as well as any special java code/classes required for properly written android applications. More or less looking for a very clear guide to the terminology to use eclipse with android adt for java.

Thanks in advance,

Jonathan
