| Feature request to support existing projects [message #22007] |

To import/convert existing projects into TheIde it would be nice to import an entire directory-tree at once.
Now, creating a package for an existing project that contains 10 directories is quite some work.
Also, you must be very careful not to add files to the package that TheIde does not support because (referring to the earlier bug report about png/bmp files) because TheIde will crash an not save the project, so you have to start all over.
Suggested feature:
Import a directory-tree, perhaps specify to import only a certain mask, also add an option to separate the files per-directory.
Something like:
Import: /home/jan/myprogram/head_revision
mask: *.cpp, *.h, *.i, *.ico
[x] create separators for each directory

Whoops, I didn't test this feature very well!
I seems that all files are imported into the project as being in the 'root' import directory! the paths aren't used at all.
Also, the order of the imported files seems 'random' they do not seem to be ordered in a logical way, nor sorted.
I think it would be logical to sort by name, and would also keep the 'classes' together in most cases.
Bar.cpp
Bar.h
Foo.cpp
Foo.h
Finally, I vote for a separator for the 'root' import directory as well, as files from the last subdirectory and the 'root' directory are now grouped together.a
All this means:
importdir/fb.cpp
importdir/fb.h
importdir/foo/bar.h
importdir/foo/bar.cpp
importdir/foo/br.h
importdir/foo/br.cpp
will become:
seporator<foo>
br.h
br.cpp
bar.cpp
bar.h
fb.h
fb.cpp
instead of:
seporator<foo>
foo/bar.cpp
foo/bar.h
foo/br.cpp
foo/br.h
seporator<importdir>
fb.cpp
fb.h

Jan
