sbt eclipse command changed files and packages

I created a new Scala project in eclipse then added a package and Scala object , So far so good ...

i want to add external library so i added a project folder with build.properties plugins.sbt files,and another file build.sbt in the root project.

in the terminal i compiled successfully the project with the sbt compile task.

the problem is that after sbt eclipse command the eclipse project changed from Scala project to something else.... all the packages changed to simple folders and the Scala project is ruined

  • scala IDE :Build id: 3.0.3-20140327-1716-Typesafe
  • scala version :2.10.4
  • sbt version:0.13.0

Solution

  • Where did you get the eclipse command from? I'm guessing you're using sbteclipse.

    If I understand correctly, this is exactly the opposite of what the plugin is intended to do. I think you're suppose to create a plain sbt project, and then let the plugin generate the Eclipse project.
