[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-955?page=comments#action_49852 ]
Barry Kaplan commented on MNG-955: ---------------------------------- I agree with Rafal, direct project references is critical. And since eclipse already does not have any clean way to seperate dependency types then yes, all the libraries in a referenced project should be exported and hence available the referencing project. The eclipse plugin seems to imply that it already will do this. But this is not what I am seeing. I get only jar references via the local repository. For us, this is pretty a show-stopper. My team won't use maven if it means they can't directly navigate in eclipse. (Well, at least it means that eclipse project will need to be manually created.) > There should be possible to use artifacts instead of project references in > multi module projects > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-955 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-955 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Bug > Components: maven-eclipse-plugin > Reporter: Kaare Nilsen > Assignee: Edwin Punzalan > Fix For: 2.0.1 > Attachments: MNG-955-maven-eclipse-plugin.patch > > > One of the fine things with maven is that one can have several modules in a > project. > But in the eclipse plugin all dependent modules in the project is added as a > project reference instead of using the delivered artifact. > As a result i have to have all my modules (eclipse projects) opened just to > compile in eclipse. > I think this should be an option. e.g. > <useProjectReference>true</useProjectReference> > with this set to true as default, but when false, the classpath should use a > reference to the jar in local repos as all other artifacts -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
