Eclipse: import “Project from Git” no longer works

[AlessandroGnoatto]

Hi,

Trying to directly import the finmath library as a project from git in Eclipse 2020-12 does not work. The structure of the project is not correcly recognized, see the following snapshot:

The issue has been reported by some students of mine and replicated on my environment.
Best,
Alessandro

I missed this one. We all moved to import the project as "Maven Project" a long time ago since this is far more reliable. Maybe the Eclipse project files should be removed.

I see, then I suggest updating the following page

https://www.finmath.net/finmath-lib/gettingstarted.html

In particular I suggest deleting the part "Alternatively you can import the project as “Project from Git” (this works, because an Eclipse .project file is part of the repository):"
