Step1.) Rename the project by first selecting on the project explorer(Jdev) and then on the tabs click refactor > rename



Step2.) Change the file name



Step3.) Change the composite name inside composite.xml



Step4.) Inside the project properties change the default package



Step5.) Once Jdev restart we will again see the same project name,
after this open the project again and this time select the renamed .jpr



Step6.) We will again see the renamed project




In addition to this,

To change the project folder name. 

1. Remove the project from application In JDEV
2. Close JDEV

  2. I don't think the deployed project can be renamed, this is more like you will undeploy the existing composite and deploy the one which you have renamed in JDeveloper

  5. Do you have any idea how we can change the folder structure for ex. generally we have folder structure like Application\project\project.jpr and at this level we also have all other project resources. If we want to change it to Application\project\trunk\src\(project.jpr and other resources) any idea how it can be done from Jdev?
