Re: How to import multi-module projects in Eclipse through mvn
eclipse:eclipse
If you want to do this, why not use one of the maven eclipse plugins?
At least I know m2eclipse supports this very nicely...

Thanks everyone for the inputs. Let me give the Eclipse plugin a try :)

Rusty,
The startup issue been fixed while ago. The project import and updating
dependencies may take some time for large project, but nothing like that is
happening at Eclipse startup anymore.
regards,
Eugene

I forgot to add, I agree with Kent; using the m2eclipse plugin really makes it much nicer; it keeps your classpath up to date and all kinds of other nice stuff. Just learn to get in the habit of sitting back and waiting for it to finish doing its stuff when you start eclipse; for me the price is well worth it.

Posted by Rusty Wright <ru...@gmail.com>.
I think you may be able to do it if you put the parent and child projects at the same level in the filesystem; don't nest the child modules in the parent's directory. Thus, your parent pom will have
<module>../myappone</module>
<module>../myapptwo</module>
And the child poms will have something like
<parent>
<artifactId>parentArtifactId</artifactId>
<groupId>myGroupId</groupId>
<version>whatever</version>
<relativePath>../parent/pom.xml</relativePath>
</parent>
Get that to work outside of eclipse, then start over with eclipse and import each one separately.

The only reason i stay away from adding plugins (any plugins) to eclipse is
because
1) It makes Eclipse slow
2) The plugins sometimes start off uncontrollable actions (ex: downloading
dependencies etc...)
But if that's the only way to do this, then maybe, i'll have to rethink.
Isn't this supported from mvn plugins instead?
