DXC Eclipse Project Set Editor

Project set files allow you to quickly import/export projects via Git, CVS and other Eclipse team providers.

The DXC Eclipse Project Set Editor provides an editor for project set files.

In addition it provides a specialized project set project (PS Project) with one project set file.

PS projects enables the user to nest project sets by using project set projects as entries in other project sets. Project sets can then be loaded recursively. If a PS project X is loaded, that contains a PS project Y, then the projects specified in the project set file in Y are also loaded.
