Hi All,
it looks like that if you create a AppFuse project and import it into
Eclipse as a file tree (see: http://appfuse.org/display/APF/Eclipse) you
get a kind of project that Eclipse does not recognize as "Java-based"
and, as a consequence, you cannot use a few of the Eclipse Java-related
features on it.

For example, if you try to add a Java class you get this error message:
"Source folder is not a Java project." As long as I can see, Eclipse
seems also to be unable to reconstruct the existing package structure of
the application and display it in the package explorer.

I see that an AppFuse-based app is a Maven-based project, not a native
Java one, but is this behavior normal?

Having run "mvn eclipse:eclipse" (on a "regular", single-module
project), should not Eclipse be able to recognize the AppFuse app as a
regular Java project, structured in packages, and should not be able to
use its Java-specific features on it?

Thanks for your attention

PS: Of course, I still can create empty files, write code from scratch
and manage packages by myself so this is not a real (blocking) problem
but... just to understand how AppFuse works...

PS2: Everything else works fine. The project can be built from within
Eclipse (despite an error message complaining about the wrong version of
Maven) and can be run with Jetty.
