Re. libraries - as designed, cf. issue #47498. Your own Ant scripts can use your own mechanisms to refer to library JARs on disk. To associate sources and/or Javadoc, just make libraries with the same paths. Re. subprojects - again, as far as the build script is concerned, you can do whatever you like. If you want the IDE to know about "subprojects" (only affects opening from Open Project dialog, and the Open Required Projects context menu item), this is possible though not from the GUI, e.g. at the end of <general-data> use <subprojects> <project>../some-other-path</project> </subprojects> *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 47498 ***
