I have Eclipse Neon installed on Windows 10 and I'm trying to understand the Remote System Explorer (RSE) feature in order to possibly migrate my Java project to a remote Ubuntu Server 16.04 machine.
I know that you can create a project with the RSE perspective (Create Remote project on an empty remote folder for example). However, this creates a normal project, not a Java project.
What I want is to have the same features of a Java project - for example suggestion when typing ctrl+backspace
, live error or warning notifications (underlining the respective words), etc. - in RSE.
I have both openjdk and default-jdk on my Ubuntu machine.
Is that even possible?
If this can help, this is what is shown when I try a ctrl+backspace
on a remote file of the project.
Solved. I just imported the .classpath
and .project
files of a previous Java project on Windows.
