-------------------------------------------------------------

Almost; the issue is that the version is TOO specific, for example: 

cxf-api-2.2.6-SNAPSHOT

"-2.2.6-SNAPSHOT" is appended to all project names, which becomes invalid as soon as 2.2.6 comes out and the "2.2.x" branch is working on 2.2.7.

It would be better with "cxf-api-2.2.x-SNAPSHOT" or "cxf-api-2.2-SNAPSHOT"

I can see that the pom.xml contains:  

<version>2.2.6-SNAPSHOT</version>

So, after reading the Maven docs (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/eclipse-mojo.html), I found the solution:

{quote}
mvn -Psetup.eclipse -Declipse.projectNameTemplate=[artifactId]-2.2.x
{quote}

So perhaps inventing something like this would be better:

-Declipse.postfixProjectName=2.2.x

> It looks like CXF uses the Maven POM project/artifactId to name Eclipse projects when the CXF maven tool is used:
> bq. mvn -Psetup.eclipse 
> This is great until you want to use the same Eclipse workspace to work on multiple branches. 
> For example, I want to be able to compare debug runs in CXF 2.2.x and 2.3.x. Switching workspaces is a pain and does not allow having two debug sessions running at the same time.
> What about having the CXF {{setup.eclipse}} tool generate the Eclipse project name to include the branch name? 
> For example, instead of {{cxf-api}}, use {{cxf-api-2.2.x}}
