I corrected the page as Eugene doesn't like the m2eclipse being called Tycho. Tycho is actually a set of Maven plugins written by Tom that enable an OSGi toolchain that has been used in production for a long time. I'll document that, but the eclipse integration itself is just called m2eclipse.

Since the question of choosing an Eclipse Integration is often asked, I
just worked on the "Eclipse Integration" page from Maven Users Wiki:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/Eclipse+Integration

I started a comparison matrix with basic project informations.

This Wiki is public: feel free to improve the comparison.

Selon Abel Muiño <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


As for the comparison between maven integration solutions, I know none but it would be interesting if someone started one (like a google group and some pages on it). Since I'm involved with q4e, it would not be a fair comparison
if I made it :-).

I think it would be easy to have a "feature matrix" just if several users of
the different solutions exchanged opinions on a list.

As for cleaning the project from the shell... if you use eclipse, you'll
need to refresh/rebuild the workspace. This is not a problem with the
plug-ins, but something that goes deep in the eclipse architecture.

go to a shell and do a `mvn clean` on the project?

I have a plugin (dont remember its name) that integrates Maven nicely, but
is allergic to the (sometimes needed) cleaning.

Thanks,
Rodrigo

What are the differences between this plugin and m2eclipse (aka Tycho)?


The objective of this plugin is to be part of the Eclipse Foundation <http://www.eclipse.org> , for that reason the license is EPL and we are going to follow the foundation procedures. Thanks to the sponsorship of DevZuz <http://www.devzuz.com> , an Eclipse Strategic Developer Member <http://www.eclipse.org/membership/showMember.php?member_id=824> we are
in a good position to achieve this goal.

Besides the objective, there are technical differences. While m2eclipse shows Maven output in a console, Q is based in events and will show them
in an organized way that allows filtering by severity, search,...
Functionality like the dependency graph, or creation of new projects
using the archetype mechanism are only present in Q.

Also it's implemented in several modules with reusability and extension in mind so other people can develop their own plugins taking advantage
of the functionality they need (see for instance Candy for Appfuse
<http://ramblingabout.wordpress.com/2007/09/02/candy-for-appfuse-will-be


-under-extreme-refactoring/<http://ramblingabout.wordpress.com/2007/09/02/candy-for-appfuse-will-be-under-extreme-refactoring/ >>
).

In any case the underlying Maven libraries used for both plugins are the same (the Maven Embedder) and both plugin developers collaborate in its
development.

Subject: Mevenide vs. M2Eclipse, Q for Eclipse/IAM



I googled around to try to find a comparison between Mevenide and the

alternatives, and didn't come up with much.



Can someone tell me the differences?



(I've spend some time with m2eclipse, and I'm *not* impressed).
