Despite a bunch of Wiki pages and threads on the mailing list, I
cannot setup Magnolia in Eclipse/WTP. Any help gladly appreciated!
Here's what I do:
Setup:
- Mac OS X
- Java 1.5
- Tomcat 5.5
- Eclipse 3.2 with WTP 1.5
I failed building trunk and 3.0.2 (despite manual integration of
3.0.1 dms module). So I thought, that I should _first_ get thinks
(WTP) working with 3.0.1 w/o any hacks. Here's what I did:
1. Delete maven repo folder
% rm -r ~/.m2
2. In Eclipse checkout magnolia tag 3.0.1
- Window > Open Perspective > SVN Repository Exploring
- If repository does not exist: Add repository "http://
svn.magnolia.info/svn/magnolia
- Open repository
- Open tags
- Ctrl-click (right-click) on magnolia-3.0.1 and select checkout
- Choose "Check out as a project in workspace" and hit "Finish"
- Close eclipse
3. Install JCR
% cd magnolia-3.0.1
% mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.jcr -DartifactId=jcr -
Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
4. Build the project on the command line
% mvn clean install
5. Try to convert it to an eclipse web project
% mvn eclipse:clean -Dwtpversion=1.5
% mvn eclipse:eclipse -Dwtpversion=1.5 -DdownloadSources=true
6. Back to Eclipse again
- Start it up
- Update the project
- Ad a classpath variable "M2_REPO" pointing to your .m2 folder
(Windows > Preference > Java > Build Path > Classpath Variable)
=> Project is still not a WTP project!!!
It's the "magnolia" subproject that should turn into a WTP project,
right?
Then I created a dynamic web project using the wizzard and tried to
figure out the differences. Unfortunately I did not find the problem.
Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks a bunch!

P.S.: It builds fine with maven on the command line. I end up with a
working "magnolia-3.0.1.war" under magnolia/target. I must assume
however that the mvn eclipse:eclipse command does not do its job.
