> Quite simply there are quite a few ways to make eclipse:eclipse generate POM based projects and thus the assumption in eclipse:clean that there are never any to clean up is invalid.
> We use a flat hierarchy like this:
>  Directory of D:\APT\projects\apt\examples\calculator
> 14/02/2007  12:40    <DIR>          .
> 14/02/2007  12:40    <DIR>          ..
> 14/02/2007  16:32    <DIR>          calculator-ear
> 14/02/2007  16:32    <DIR>          calculator-ejb
> 14/02/2007  16:32    <DIR>          calculator-engine
> 14/02/2007  16:25    <DIR>          calculator-root
> 14/02/2007  16:32    <DIR>          calculator-servlets
> 14/02/2007  16:32    <DIR>          calculator-webapp
> calculator-root is the PARENT project of type POM which which logically contains all the others. 
> As we are flat we can import all of these into Eclipse without any complaints from Eclipse. To get eclipse:eclipse to generate a .project file for calculator-root we tell the eclipse plugin that the Eclipse workspace is == to the project.builddir. So inside calculator-root/pom.xml we have:-
> 	<build>	
> 		<plugins>		
> 			<plugin> 
> 				<!-- force the eclipse plugin to generate an Eclipse project for 
> 				this POM project, by default it only does so for Java style projects -->
> 				
> 				<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> 				<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
> 				<configuration>
> 					<eclipseProjectDir>${project.basedir}</eclipseProjectDir>
> 				</configuration>
> 			</plugin>
> 		</plugins>		
> 	</build>
> This works a treat, we get all the Eclipse project files generated. However eclipse:clean dont do the do. May i suggest you just delete any files in clean rather than trying to be clever? Works for us. Patch attached.
