Subject: Eclipse and Maven "best practice"


Hi,

Can anyone help me with the best way to setup a Maven/Eclipse
environment? I
know there is a goal to produce an eclipse project with the pom, but I'm
trying to understand how to create one at hand, customise and include
it's
dependencies.

I have created 2 projects, "appTest" and "appCommon". The main project
is
"appTest" that depends on "appCommon".

The source directories are the default Maven (src/main/java) and that
directory is configured as "source" in eclipse, so it can compile the
code.

Then I've configured a specific directory "build" (same level as the
"src"
above), that eclipse will use to put the compiled classes (this folder
will
be ignored for SVN/CVS integration).

Everything looks great, and works nicelly. Or so it seems ...

No let's say I put a dependency on version Log4J 1.0. I make some code
accessing it, then eclipse will just mark it as invalid, since the Log4J
is
not in it's classpath. Maven, on the other end, downloads it from
central
repository and compiles successfully.

Now what would be the best way to put it to compile in eclipse?

The way I see it, I can include it in the project's classpath, and point
it
to the local repository jar that maven just downloaded.

Would this be the best option?
