I would love to have 'Solution' support in eclipse where i can make a solution called X and in it make/move projects. And those projects see each other but no other projects in other solutions. Why have this? Because now i have to use multiply workspaces form branch support So i have a product (that is sort of the solution) that is build out of 5 projects . So that is basicaly a solution, you sort of have working sets for that but they have one problem: Now i branch: so i have the same 5 projects for HEAD stream and one for lets say the 1.2.x branch.. How do i contain that in one workspace? That is impossible without also renaming the projects and all its dependencies on each other. This is very cumbersome. Better would be to have: Workspace Solution HEAD Project1 Project2 ... Solution BRANCH Project1 Project2 ... So projects do have the same name in the workspace but they are in different solutions. Now you can quicly say close/open solution and so on. Also it wouldn't be to much of a problem if by some constraint eclipse could only handle one solution open at the time (so that you have to switch between them) A discussion about this is done also here: http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/m92007652
