Im quoting the answer of Tomas for about the same question i made few months ago: ... eclipse.dependency does not refer to an Eclipse project but only tells the Eclipse plugin whether it should add the dependency to the project's classpath. Since an Eclipse project is not recognized as a dependency type, the dependency you have defined will not be considered as an Eclipse project and automatically added to the classpath. However, you can add an Eclipse project to the classpath by defining the following in your project.properties file:
maven.eclipse.classpath.include=/test1 Then you also need set eclipse.dependency to false in your project.xml. If not, you'll add it once as an Eclipse dependency and a second time as jar dependency. ... As you can see eclipse.dependency will download the jar and work with it only for other maven goals but in your eclipse project will be linked the eclipse project where the property was set.
