Re: [eclipse plugin] setting the output directory

[James Strachan <ja...@yahoo.co.uk>]

I've patched the eclipse plugin so that the output directory of the
generated eclipse project can be configured. e.g. I now set the following
variable in my ~/build.properties file

    maven.eclipse.output.dir = bin

which then uses a local bin directory, to keep Eclipse and Maven generated
files separate. I've left the default behaviour the same, so this is an
optional feature for those that need it.
