Nigel Jones commented on RANGER-1186:
-------------------------------------

A quick update on my attempt to get eclipse running more cleanly. Via https://github.com/mojohaus/build-helper-maven-plugin/issues/43 I can see that after testing prerelease, simply updating pom.xml with a new version for the build helper plugin, along with taking the eclipse quick-fix to pull in lifecycle mappers (a normal technique) will fix the errors relating to that plugin

<plugin>
                    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                    <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                    <version>3.0.0</version>
                </plugin>

Then we're left with plugins that are yet to become m2e compatible - see referenced defects for that discussion. I opted to force their tasks to run during build. This felt the most appropriate rather than ignore - since this might not find issues introduced whilst coding.

For this I added some entries to plugin management. It may not be perfect, but it's a starting point, resulting in what seems like a clean (no error) eclipse environment

              <!--This plugin's configuration is used to store Eclipse m2e settings only. It has no influence on the Maven build itself.-->

                		</lifecycleMappingMetadata>
                	</configuration>
                </plugin>

I can do a patch of those changes if someone would like to fix/commit?
Is this a reasonable change?
I think it's low risk as it mostly only affects m2e configuration. The only change to the real build is the move to 3.0 on the build helper plugin

> I can happily build ranger in my Ubuntu 16.10 environment with
>  - open jdk 1.8.0_102
>  - maven 3.3.9
> I also have eclipse neon installed in this environment
> The build/setup instructions at http://ranger.apache.org/quick_start_guide.html have minimal instructions for eclipse.
> I imported the top level ranger directory using the m2e plugin as provided in neon.
> This failed with numerous errors
> Is anyone actively building with eclipse? If so can we update the website with current setup information?
> If not I'll use this JIRA to record the issues & hope to address them & update the docs ;-)
> Screenshots to follow
