refactor package

[Former Member]

Hello,

I created an application but now i want to refactor a package name. I tried to rename it in the explorer view but that kinda messes it all up...it doesnt update all the references. Anyone knows how this can be done?

Much thanks,

Hugo,

Try Right-click on package / Refactor... / Rename...

When i try to do this in the implementation of a view...i get the message:

Operation unavailable on current selection. Select a java project, source folder, resource, <b>package</b>, compilation unit, type, field, method, parameter or a local variable.

Guess they have a different view of a package then me

Hugo,

In WD perspective you should be able to right-click on view in tree and rename the view.

In Java perspective you should be able to rename complete package (be ready to fix package names in WD XML files)

Aaaah, ok, in the rename in the WD perspective you can also rename the package...great!

Thx
