[Eclipse Plugin] Defining dependency as Eclipse project
Hello,
I tried to define an Eclipse project as dependency in the project.xml.
But after calling "maven eclipse" maven tries to download a JAR instead
of adding an entry to the .classpath file. I used the sample code at
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/eclipse/. Did I misunderstand
something? I thought thats the way to
add a required project to the build path using maven.
Regards,
Martin

I agree with you that the docs are misleading...
Try that then:
maven.eclipse.classpath.include=${maven.eclipse.workspace}/project

This adds E:/test1 to the .classpath as classpathentry (note the drive
letter).
BTW, I think the documentation on
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/eclipse/ is misleading.

Im quoting the answer of Tomas for about the same question i made few
months ago:
...
eclipse.dependency does not refer to an Eclipse project but only tells
the Eclipse plugin whether it should add the dependency to the
project's classpath. Since an Eclipse project is not recognized as a
dependency type, the dependency you have defined will not be
considered as an Eclipse project and automatically added to the
classpath. However, you can add an Eclipse project to the classpath
by defining the following in your project.properties file:
maven.eclipse.classpath.include=/test1
Then you also need set eclipse.dependency to false in your
project.xml. If not, you'll add it once as an Eclipse dependency and
a second time as jar dependency.
...
As you can see eclipse.dependency will download the jar and work with
it only for other maven goals but in your eclipse project will be
linked the eclipse project where the property was set.
Best regards.

Mmh, quoted from http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/eclipse/:
" The dependencies defined in the POM need not to be jars strictly. They
can be projects in the eclipse workspace. If a dependency is an eclipse
project a property needs to be added to that dependency to indicate so."
"They can be projects in the eclipse workspace." Does this not say that
it's possible to add a project instead of a JAR?

Martin

The maven eclipse plugin just includes the artifacts from the maven
repository for you. It does not create dependencies between eclipse
projects (even though this would be desirable for SNAPSHOT
dependencies). AFAIK this can't be done with the current eclipse plugin,
because it does not know about the other projects in your eclipse
workspace and their locations in the filesystem.
Maybe Maven 2.0 can do that. I'm waiting for the first beta release
before I give it a try.
