Source control and automatic build

Hi All,

I'm currently using Subversion as a source control system for Nios projects (both hardware and software). The Nios projects are easily kept under source control (it's probably possible to use Subclipse, but I do it manually), but as far as I know, the workspace cannot be source controlled. Two problem arise from this fact:

1. Whenever I check out the whole design, I have to create a workspace manually, and import all software projects, which is a tedious and inefficient.

2. Automatic build process cannot be set up, since Altera's command line build tools rely on a workspace to exist.

I would like to know if anyone has already addressed those problems. Maybe a solution could be generating a workspace automatically, but I didn't find a way to do it yet.

Thanks,

Avishay
