Eclipse configured by Maven resolves dependencies in your local repository. GeoServer running in Eclipse gets all its GeoTools dependencies from this local repository. Workflow: (1) Make your GeoTools change. (2) Run "mvn -o clean install" from the base directory of the changed GeoTools module (you do not need to rebuild all of GeoTools every time [although you should before you commit]). This will install in your local repository the jar files (binary and sources) containing your changes. (3) Restart GeoServer from Eclipse. The running application will use the changed version of GeoTools. > Also Ben, I wonder if you can benefit from Eclipse's concept of > working set.
