-------------------
My directory structure:

 - Desktop/minecraft_modding
   - 1.7.10
     - eclipse
     - forge
     - minecraft
     - mods
       - mod1
       - mod2
       - ...

  * 'eclipse' is the eclipse workspace
  * 'forge' is the directory where forge/forgegradle stuff is installed as per usual
  * 'minecraft' is the working directory set in eclipse, so saves, screenshots etc go there
  * Under 'mods' are my mods, one directory per mod, and they have their own build.gradle scripts there. I also build them there separately.

-------------------

Forge version update procedure:

1. Go to the main forge dir and run the gradle stuff there
   (edit build.gradle for version number, run gradlew setupDecompWorkspace and gradlew eclipse)
2. Delete the forge project from eclipse
3. Import a new Java project, select the forge dir as the root, don't copy into workspace
4. Remove the src dirs from the forge project (Configure Build path, remove src and resources, then remove the src dir from the project)
5. should be done if stuff hasn't changed too much

-------------------

Howto (updated 2014-07-16 when updating from 1160 to 1180):

1. Create a new forge dev environment with gradlew setupDecompWorkspace and gradlew eclipse (in the 'forge' directory in my dir structure)
2. Open eclipse, select an empty dir as the workspace (the 'eclipse' directory in my dir structure)
3. Import -> General -> Existing project and select the 'forge' directory (NOT the eclipse one under it!), DON'T select the copy project into workspace option
4. From Build path -> Configure Build Path -> Source tab, remove the two source dirs
5. Remove the src dir from under the 'forge' project in the package explorer
6. Create a new run config (Java Application) for the 'forge' project, use the settings above for arguments.
7. Add the mods one by one by creating new Java projects, and then for each of them, do the following
8. Remove the default src dir like above.
9. Then add folders (right click project, New -> Folder) and select the src/main/java (as 'src') and src/main/resources (as 'resources') dirs of the mods,
    and then set them as source directories (right click them in the package explorer -> Build Path -> Use as Source Folder).
    NOTE: This step depends on the mod's file/directory structure of course.
10. In Build Paths -> Configure Build Paths, Projects tab, click Add and select the main project ('forge') as a dependency
11. Create a vanilla and a modded run config. In the modded run config, add the mod projects you want to have in this
    run config in Classpath -> User entries (remove the two checkbox ticks).
