In the 2019-09 version of Eclipse IDE, it is showing navigator as "Navigator (Deprecated)". Why is it going away? Will there be a replacement? I don't like views that hide or move actual directories around. Sometimes I prefer to see things as they exist in version control, for testing builds, etc.
GO to Window option of elicpse , click on ShowView Go to other >> General >> Navigation and press OK. Show activity on this post. Select the Navigator option.
In menu bar, you can select "Window" -> "Show View", and then select "Project Explorer" (or other components you want to open).
To view the project explorer, click on Window menu then, click on Show View and select Project Explorer. There is simpler way to open project explorer, when you are in the editor press alt + shift + w and select project explorer.
The Navigator view shows all your Eclipse projects, both projects associated with AccuRev and others. You access each project's files and directories (folders) using a familiar tree control.
Building off of nitind and osoblanco's suggestions: You can make Project Explorer look exactly like the deprecated Navigator view by the following steps:
I didn't see any difference between Flat or Hierarchical in the Project presentation, so I left it as the default. I'm using Eclipse IDE for Java Developers version 2020-09. All of my projects use the default package, so I don't really need to see "Java Elements".
I guess they figure they are supporting it well enough if you spend time configuring. For me this gets close enough I suppose...
Hit the 3 dots in the top right. -Set the "Package Presentation" to hierarchical. -Alter Filters and Customization. Uncheck "Java output folders" so that they show.
