Eclipse and Processing Filtered Resources on Clean

[Thomas Van de Velde]

I am using the Eclipse plugin for Maven to add a builder so that upon every
clean the resources:resources goal gets invoked.  This avoids the tedious
process of keep filtered resources up to date after a clean in Eclipse.  The
output for this in the .project file looks as follows:


<buildCommand>

<name>org.eclipse.ui.externaltools.ExternalToolBuilder</name>

<triggers>full,incremental,</triggers>

<arguments>

<dictionary>

<key>LaunchConfigHandle</key>

<value>&lt;project&gt;/.externalToolBuilders/Repository Resources
[Builder].launch</value>

</dictionary>

</arguments>

</buildCommand>

Whenever I regenerate the project with eclipse:eclipse, this section gets
wiped out and I need to add it again manually.  I haven't found a way to add
these more complicated buildCommand to the maven-eclipse plugin.  The
maven-plugin only seems to support simple buildcommands.

Any solutions for this?  I have trouble understanding that both the m2
eclipse plugin and the maven-eclipse plugin have not solved this issue.  I
would assume this is a common requirement for anybody using filters.
