# Convert Dimensions CM SCC projects

To use existing Dimensions CM Eclipse SCC projects as project containers, you must first convert them. When you convert SCC projects, you can choose whether to:

- Convert Eclipse SCC projects to project containers, or to single projects that map one-to-one to Eclipse projects.

- Convert all Eclipse SCC projects in a product to containers at one time.

- Convert a specific Eclipse SCC project to a container. When you convert an existing SCC project, the conversion includes all derived baselines and projects.

To convert existing Dimensions CM SCC projects to either single projects or project containers, follow the instructions in the following document, available from the Dimensions CM 10.1: Guide to Upgrading Existing SCC Projects in Eclipse. This guide explains how to load the conversion integration to Eclipse and convert your existing projects to container projects.

The following summarizes the key steps that you must perform to convert your projects.

1. Load the project conversion integration into Eclipse as described in the Dimensions CM 10.1: Guide to Upgrading Existing SCC Projects in Eclipse.

2. To convert all Eclipse projects to the new project container model:

   1. Expand the Convert Dimensions CM Eclipse Projects node, and right-click Projects.

   2. Select Convert All to Containers from the context menu. When you choose this option, all projects that have no parent projects are marked as container projects. All projects under these container projects are converted to contained projects.

3. To convert a specific project to a project container:

   Under Convert Dimensions CM Eclipse Projects > Projects, right-click the project and choose Convert to Container from the context menu. When you choose this option, the project is converted to a container project. All child projects are included in the new container project.
