After I moved to a new Windows machine (with Windoes 7, 64 bit) and installed eclipse Helios and Subclipse, I cannot see the Subversion information for my existing projects (using an old eclipse workspace that I had already used on my old Windows XP with eclipse Helios and Subclipse). When I created a new project, it did show the Subversion information properly for this newly created project (although not anymore after I restarted eclipse; it would then display a revision 0 for all source files, with a nonsensical date associated to them :-(), but not for all the existing projects in my workspace :-(. Does anybody know how to resolve this? (I tried closing an re-opening one of the existing projects, as suggested by somebody in a similar thread, but it didn't work for me). Looks like all the existing projects show up as not being shared, and the one I newly created in this install, shows up as shared but with an empty SVN path (e.g. [] instead of a real path to the right of its name within the Java perspective). Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

More info on this: when I close the newly created project and reopen it, then it starts showing again the proper Subversion information. Note that this is not the case for all my previously existing project, which are still not showing any Subversion information at all (not shared apparently).

Turns out that this question was already answered in the Subclipse forums (as I had also posted there). For those interested, I needed to do a 'share' each of the projects again. As the svn folders were already part of the projects, Subclipse prompted me to automatically reconnect to the old SVN location, which is what I did. This was slightly painful as I had to do it for every old project, but it worked.
