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>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<packaging>jar</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.
Thanks for the response,
Jim
