Hi Francis,
i figured out how to configure the web-applications to run within eclipse.
To get it working, I used the following snippet in the pom.xml for the
web-example projects:
<!-- WTP-Eclipse-Projekt -->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<m2eclipse>true</m2eclipse>
<downloadSources>true</downloadSources>
<wtpversion>1.5</wtpversion>
</configuration>
</plugin>
It is then sufficient to run "mvn eclipse:eclipse" on the console once to get
it working within eclipse.
However this has some strange effect on the other example projects, i.e. the
m2eclipse plugin does not convert the other example projects correctly. And I
get an error message during checkout saying:
An internal error occurred during: "Importing Maven projects". Element
not found: /empire-db-parent/empire-db-examples/empire-db-example-
struts2-cxf/.settings.
Although the folder is there?!?!?!
I therefore included the upper snipped in the pom.xml only as an comment.
If users want to run/debug the web-examples in eclipse, they just have to
uncomment it and run "mvn eclipse:eclipse".

I don't run them using eclipse, I ran them using the maven jetty plugin
