Richard van Nieuwenhoven commented on MECLIPSE-158:
---------------------------------------------------

see:  http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html 
for a good explanation how to make and activate profiles.

the module with with XML beans moves to the modules section in your profile, 
but i must note that i do not like the notion that the ide control's my pom 
structure....

As soon as MECLIPSE-344 in integrated, it is possible to add an option that 
only projects already available in the workspace are directly referenced, that 
would solve the problem.

> The issue is that I have a large project with many interdependent submodules. 
>   One of the submodules uses XML Beans to generate a set of objects from an 
> XML Schema.   This works perfectly, but Eclipse has a problem with the class 
> names used in XMLBeans, and I have to close that particular project for 
> Eclipse not to complain.  But, if I close that project, all of the projects 
> that depend on it directly (through a referenced project), then complain that 
> they are missing a referenced project.
> The solution is to relate the project via the local repository (M2_REPO/...) 
> not via a project reference, but in EclipseClasspathWriter, all projects 
> available via the reactor are treated as referenced projects:
>         if ( dep.isReferencedProject() && !config.isPde() )
>         {
>             path = "/" + dep.getArtifactId(); //$NON-NLS-1$
>             kind = ATTR_SRC;
>         }
> One solution would be to not use project references, but the problem only 
> happens with specific projects, and I want to be able to selectively mark 
> dependencies as not being referenced.
> Something as simple as, this:
> <config>
>   <localReference>
>      <groupId>blah</groupId>
>      <artifactId>blah</artifactId>
>   </localReference>
> </config>
> Where the dependency identified by that groupId and artifactId would be 
> treated not as a direct project reference but as a link to the local 
> repository.
> Does that make any sense?
