To import some projects into a specific workspace from command line:
1. Copy the projects into the workspace location
2. Execute the command:
ecd -updateWorkspace -data your_workspace_location.
For example:
cwidec -application com.freescale.wsupdater.updater -data your_workspace_location
The following options are supported:
-logfile <file>
By default, the workspace updater outputs information to stdout. However, you can ask for the output to go to a file
-noclose
By default, the workspace updater closes the workbench after it has completed adding/removing projects. However, the user can request that the workbench remain open.
This application brings up the Eclipse IDE. The user is presented with a modal progress dialog while the update operation is in progress. The dialog is a standard Jobs dialog. It not only provides progress but gives the user the option to dismiss the dialog and have the operation run in the "background". Also, like most jobs in Eclipse, the operation is cancelable.
