This can be accomplished creating a “Linked Folder” resource in Eclipse. It’s essentially the same thing as what Xcode creates when you drag any file or folder into your project and tell it to create references – just nowhere near as easy.
The ADT Eclipse plugin expects an “assets” folder at the top level of your project, so we’re going to create an /assets linked folder that references ../www, sitting right next to your project folder.
- File menu > New > Folder
- Folder name: assets
- Click Advanced >>
- Select: Link to alternate location (Linked Folder)
- You can use Browse to select the www folder and you’re done, but this option creates the link using a full path which will usually break on other team members’ systems
- Click Variables…
- New
- Name: SIBLING_WWW_FOLDER
- Location: ${PROJECT_LOC}/../www
- OK
- Select SIBLING_WWW_FOLDER and click OK
- Finish
