[M2] Eclipse plugin will not generate project descriptor for RAR artifacts?

Part of a multimodule build, I have a RAR-module which builds fine outside
Eclipse using Maven 2.0.5. However, when the maven-eclipse-plugin is run to
create Eclipse project descriptors, the project for the RAR-module only
contains project references. The Java nature is not set and neither is the
build classpath. The relevant parts in the RAR-module's POM are:

<packaging>rar</packaging>

<plugin>
	<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
	<artifactId>maven-rar-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.2</version>
	<configuration>
		<includeJar>false</includeJar>
		<outputDirectory>${basedir}/target</outputDirectory>
		<raXmlFile>${basedir}/src/conf/ra.xml</raXmlFile>
	</configuration>
</plugin>


<plugin>
	<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
	<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.3</version> <!-- version is imported from parent POM -->
</plugin>

Looking for a solution I tried adding the Java nature manually to the
maven-eclipse-plugin configuration of the RAR-module's POM as follows:

<plugin>
	<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
	<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.3</version>
	<configuration>
		<buildcommands>
		 	<buildcommand>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder</buildcommand>
		</buildcommands>
		<projectnatures>
			<projectnature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</projectnature>
		</projectnatures>
	</configuration>
</plugin>

This resulted in getting a .project with a Java nature, but project
references and build classpath were not set. I suspect the
maven-eclipse-plugin does not support RAR artifacts? I also have a SAR
artifact in my build and the eclipse plugin generates a correct .project and
.classpath for that one. I was thinking handling RAR artifacts would be the
same. Is there documentation detailing which artifact types are processed by
the maven-eclipse-plugin?

Re: [M2] Eclipse plugin will not generate project descriptor for RAR artifacts?

Posted by Emmanuel Venisse <em...@venisse.net>.
It's a problem on the rar plugin that doesn't have an artifact handler descriptor.
The eclipse plugin look at the handler to define if it's a java project or not, and without this handler, the language of rar project is defined by default to "none" instead of "jar".

Please file an issue.
