Organizing ADT Project Explorer – Working Sets

Introduction

When I started using Eclipse ADT I missed a functionality to organize all access to systems that I had in SAP GUI in workspaces:

ABAP Development, SAP ABAP Exam Prep, SAP ABAP Tutorial and Material, SAP ABAP Career, SAP ABAP Preparation, SAP ABAP Guides
SAP GUI Workspaces

By default, in Eclipse ADT all projects are displayed in a list:

ABAP Development, SAP ABAP Exam Prep, SAP ABAP Tutorial and Material, SAP ABAP Career, SAP ABAP Preparation, SAP ABAP Guides
Projects explorer

After some time I found in Eclipse the Working Sets utility.

With this utility, I can create project sets to organize all access to systems.

Creating Working Sets


To create new Working Sets you need to access to the projects explorer view options and choose “Select Sets”:

ABAP Development, SAP ABAP Exam Prep, SAP ABAP Tutorial and Material, SAP ABAP Career, SAP ABAP Preparation, SAP ABAP Guides
Select Working Set

In the Select Working Set popup you can choose the Working Sets to display in the project explorer and create a new one, choosing the projects contained in the Working Set and naming it:

ABAP Development, SAP ABAP Exam Prep, SAP ABAP Tutorial and Material, SAP ABAP Career, SAP ABAP Preparation, SAP ABAP Guides
Create Working Set

The last step is to choose the Working Sets as Top level representation

Top level Working Sets
