Hi Mario:
	That is correct.  Given the extent of the networking source,
it's all command line driven.  I often pull things into my own project
in the IDE, but most people work outside of Eclipse.

SVN repository contains no files related to Eclipse ( .cproject,
.project etc).

Does that mean that nobody in the network group uses it?  Or the people
that do create their own project each time?

I do it from scratch each time, checking out the whole tree (or parts of it,
but in the same directory structure) into a single root project and then
creating additional projects that point within this root project on source
code as required.

I do this for a for a couple of reasons:

0) Project creation is relatively fast and can be tuned to be flexible to
the particular situation you are encountering.  Different development
activities need different project scopes.

1) I don't actually do clean checkouts very often, so the root project
creation isn't a frequent activity.  I do often flip around parts of the
source tree fairly regularly, so I like to have several small more focused
projects while maintaining access to all of the source that _may_ be
referenced.

2) The QNX source tree, being a hiearchichal build, really wants to have a
single rooted project to work with for things like SVN operations
(update/compare etc), world global builds and stage directories.  However,
not every module needs the whole tree to build (depending on your stage
configuration etc) so if you know what you are working with you can tailor
your checkouts/project creation as appropriate.
