Re: maven-eclipse-plugin configuration for pom packaging
The plugin doesn't support it. I think there's a an issue already opened about that. You can vote for it. It is supported by m2eclipse or Q4E.

Re: maven-eclipse-plugin configuration for pom packaging
I was afraid of that. I eventually manhandled the plugin in my pom.xml files that had pom packaging to get the .project files, but it doesn't feel right: plugin groupIdorg.apache.maven.plugins/groupId artifactIdmaven-eclipse-plugin/artifactId configuration packagingjar/packaging /configuration /plugin In the end it was a pyrrhic victory. I was hoping to use the eclipse Import...-Existing Projects into Workspace, but it stops recursing once it finds a folder with a .project file--which is not terribly useful for a multi-module projects with many component and sub-component parent poms.

Re: maven-eclipse-plugin configuration for pom packaging
If you checkout your project from your revision control system via eclipse, it should already be available as a project. Otherwise, you have to cheat to get it into eclipse. File New Project General Project Specify Project name Uncheck Use default location Browse to where the top level project is. Click Finish You should now have your top level project in eclipse. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org

I missed this. See http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/reactor.html Right towards the bottom is this Note, you have to delete the .project-file of your parent project before. The result is the same as checking out the whole project from the command line, running mvn eclipse:eclipse and finally importing the projects into your Eclipse workspace. In both cases you will be able to synchronize your changes using Eclipse. Eclipse doesn't really support projects within projects, but by deleting the .project file of the parent project you can then use Import Existing and it will find the modules. Don't worry about deleting this file, it is regenerated via Eclipse for you. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
