assuming unix,
in proj_2_tree
|
|- dir1
|- file1 softlink to ../proj_1_tree/file1
|- dir2
|- file2 softlink to ../proj_1_tree/file2
|- file3 softlink to ../proj_1_tree/file3
|- proj_1_tree
|
|- file1
|- file2
|- file3
The softlinks are created by make from a Makefile, or some other scripting
language.
