Exporting Dataspace Projects or Project Folders

ALDSP dataspace projects or their component folders can be exported in EAR (archive) format using standard Eclipse mechanisms. The export target is the local file system.

If an entire project is exported as an EAR, it constitutes a back-up of the project which can then be re-imported into an Eclipse-compatible IDE.

To create an archive file of a dataspace project:

1. In Project Explorer right-click on your project (or folder). 
2. Navigate to:

   Export > General > Archive File

3. In the Archive File wizard select the entire project or one or several folders.
4. Select from available export options.
5. Click Finish.
