Why is it necessary to “import” a Visual J++ 1.1 project?
Projects in Visual J++ 6.0 work differently than they do in earlier versions. The “import” process converts a Visual J++ 1.1 project into a Visual J++ 6.0 project. While the new projects are improved in many ways over the Visual J++ 1.1 projects, there are certain Visual J++ 1.1 projects that will not import properly into Visual J++ 6.0. Described below is the import process, along with some possible problems and how to work around them. See the “Directory-Based Projects” help topic in MSDN for a more general description of the differences between projects in Visual J++ 1.1 and Visual J++ 6.0. How do I import a Visual J++ 1.1 project? There are two ways to import a Visual J++ 1.1 project, via the project file (.dsp) or the workspace file (.dsw). Open the project .dsp file. One .dsp file is created per Visual J++ 1.1 project. Its name is derived from the project name. The .dsp file contains all the project-specific information associated with the project.
