Project within a project? Is this possible?

Hello,

I have 2 projects that I maintain separately as separate
svn
projects... I checked out the first project with eclpse
using the
subclipse subversion plugin... now the problem is the second
project
is a module for the first project, how do I check out a sub
project
into the first project and keep them separate?

This is an example of a directory structure I am trying to
achieve...


My Project --- Checked out from svn repo abc
   |
Modules
  |
 +--- Project 2 --- Checked out from svn repo xyz
  |
etc


Notice how I want my second project checked out into the
Modules
folder of the My Project project.

Is what I'm trying do make sense or is there another way to
do this?
Please let me know.

Thank you,
- Jake

Subversion has a feature called svn:externals that you have
to use.
In your example, it would involve setting this SVN property
on the
Modules folder:

property: svn:externals
value: Project2 url://server/repos/path/to/Project2

Then when you checkout My Project, Subversion will also
checkout
Project2 and put it in place.

Mark,

Thanks for your reply. I tried to set that property and
value but I
don't see it anywhere. I have the project checked out into
eclipse
already and I right clicked the Modules folder and clicked
Properties.
In the window that came up there was an option for
Subversion so I
clicked that and I see Path and Url but I can't change those
or any of
the properties that I see there.

Is this area I'm looking for somewhere else or am I supposed
to do
this on the server somehow?

Thanks,
- Jake
