Maven projects with packaging=war will be automatically configured as Dynamic Web WTP project during project import or update configuration action. All relevant project dependencies will be added to WTP J2EE Module Dependencies (and removed from Maven Dependencies) and J2EE Module Dependencies and Maven Dependencies will be automatically updated

as projects dependencies change.

There is still some bugs/limitations in this area, but this mostly works

;-) You may want to try to create/import WAR project in WTP 2.0.x and see how changes to dependencies in POM get reflected in J2EE Module Dependencies.

Ok, so in essence you are doing the same job as the maven-eclipse-plugin, in that you read the pom, and generate the .project, .classpath, .settings folder and any other eclipse related meta data.

Is that essentially correct?

Yes, this is correct, except m2eclipse uses public APIs to manipulate eclipse metadata and provides real-time synchronization of Eclipse metadata where feasible/practical.


So where do you/can you set the facets for a project?

In some instances, this is mandatory meta data that needs to be there for certain features that I use, to work.

The maven-eclipse-plugin covers this via:

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>

                    <additionalProjectFacets>
                        <com.ibm.websphere.extended.web>6.1</
com.ibm.websphere.extended.web>
                        <com.ibm.websphere.coexistence.web>6.1</
com.ibm.websphere.coexistence.web>
                        <web.jstl>1.1</web.jstl>
                        <jsf.base>7.0</jsf.base>
                        <jsf.ibm>7.0</jsf.ibm>
                    </additionalProjectFacets>

                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

How can I accomplish this using m2eclipse?

m2eclipse WTP integration does not currently allow configuration of arbitrary project facets.

WTP faceted project manipulation APIs take facet id, version and optional configuration object, so I suppose it is theoretically possible to use maven-eclipse-plugin or similar configuration to create facets that do not require explicit configuration object. Unfortunately, I can't tell if this will work for Rational project facets.
