How do I import an entire source tree into an existing project? If I've got say 200 files arranged in a deep directory tree structure that I want to include in the source of a project, how, besides adding each of them, do I get that directory tree added to the project? I want to preserve the directory structure in the project explorer too.
[ABANDONED] How to import a source tree into an existing project

I have this question too, I have large projects where I have been using code::blocks. Since there are no C::B import module, importing blocks of files is a pure necessary for me to be able to switch to SES. I tried on a smaller project to import files one by one, but then I noticed that what SES really did was making a copy of the files in the project root thus destroying my old project structure. Not good. Please tell me that I have missed something crucial here.

My SES Projects have source files spread over a folder tree in the filesystem.
When you create a New Folder in the 'Project Explorer', there is a 'Recurse into subdirectories' option - have you tried that ... ? -
Thank you, much appreciated,, that did it... well... almost. No, I did not realize that "New folder..." was an option to include existing folders. However, not that it matters toooooo much, I see no reason for why one need to have an virtual project folder to house existing hard folders. But off we go and I will play around with this new knowledge...

This shouldn't be this hard.
What I'm after is just a reflection of the underlying directory structure with IDE edits to it (don't show me this file, etc).
