how to check out from svn using Eclipse

Question

I am using Eclipse for PHP Developers Version: 3.0.2. How could I check out from a remote svn(TortoiseSVN). I googled online, but it did help, I tried to import, but there is no such option as 'from svn'.

Solution

1. Install the subclipse plugin (provides svn connectivity in eclipse) and connect to the repository. Insturctions here
2. Go to File->New->Other->Under the SVN category, select Checkout Projects from SVN.
3. Select your project's root folder and select checkout as a project in the workspace.
