| Creating a new Java project |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| You can organize Java projects in two different ways. |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| Use the project as the container of packages. In this organization, all Java packages are created directly inside the project. This is the selected organization by |
| default. The generated CLASS files are stored along with the JAVA source files. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Use source folders as the container for packages. In this project organization, packages are not created directly inside the project but in source folders. You create |
| source folders as children of the project and create your packages inside these source folders. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| The default organization for new projects can be changed on the preference pages (<strong>Window</strong> > <strong>Preferences</strong> > <strong>Java > New |
| Project</strong>). |
