I run all my code off DropBox, and even use that as my workspace! If Eclipse can see it as a folder, it should be able to use it.

Then you grab the URL for that file, and configure the BT control panel to look for it there. Anything you want accessible from your app should go into the Public folder.

If you could work out a way for Google Drive to have a drive letter, or volume name, it might work. Hmmm.

Cool beans.. never crossed my mind. Thanks Outbreak and GoNorthWest! Comments Wow... I like that idea of running it off of Dropbox or any virtual drive. Cool beans.. never crossed my mind.

Works like an absolutely charm, plus it's all backed up to the cloud! Comments Yep...I do it so I can access my code from multiple locations, and from multiple computers.
