["Daniel Kulp (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-2595?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12797738#action_12797738 ] 

Daniel Kulp commented on CXF-2595:
----------------------------------


I personally prefer NOT having the versions there as I have separate workspaces for the various branches I need.

Question:   could you use the eclipse.addVersionToProjectName flag to the eclipse plugin?

You should be able to do:

mvn  -Psetup.eclipse  -Declipse.addVersionToProjectName=true

You could also add something to your .m2/settings.xml like:

{code:xml}
    <activeProfiles>
        <activeProfile>extra</activeProfile>
    </activeProfiles>
        <profiles>
        <profile>
            <id>extra</id>
            <properties>
                <eclipse.workspace>/home/dkulp/working/workspace</eclipse.workspace>
                <downloadSources>true</downloadSources>
                <eclipse.workspace.dir>/home/dkulp/working/workspace</eclipse.workspace.dir>
                <eclipse.addVersionToProjectName>true</eclipse.addVersionToProjectName>
            </properties>
        </profile>
     </profiles>
{code}
to make it always do that.

> 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}}
