The link in the getting started docs has a link to an old version of the maven plugin:
this link: http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/update/ version="0.0.12.20071107-2300" Can be updated with this: http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/update/ version="0.9.1.200803311600" Seems to be an improvement. Another tip I got today, is that if you would like to be able to step into the code of your dependent jars when debugging, you need the sources jars.The following maven command, when run in the directory of an Eclipse project, will download the source jars for any dependent projects in the nearest pom.xml file and put them in your maven repository. Eclipse will automatically know about these sources when debugging. mvn eclipse:m2eclipse -DdownloadSources=true Note, there was a wtpversion setting in the maven plugin of the pom.xml that was causing the mvn eclipse:eclipse command to always add the WTP facet to an eclipse project created with this command. This is not the default behavior and I've taken that out as some may not want this facet added to their project. I can make patches for the docs as well as the pom if people think this is good info. davep
