Maven Eclipse

[Jitesh Shetty <ji...@ymail.com>]

Folks,

I have a very basic question, I am using maven with eclipse and have a case where I want to have two different projects which are actually built from two different branches of the same product, so I am working on two different branches and so I wanted to create two different maven projects in eclipse. I have the project built from trunk running fine, but when I try to create a project from one of the branches, I give the SVN location and then it tries to check out the code but then throws a window which says “Select Maven projects”,  it shows one pom.xml there but its frozen and cannot be selected and then in the advanced section there is “Profiles” and “Name template”. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong here.

Thanks

-Jitesh

On the contrary I don't see any issues. As long as you have good naming of
your projects (possibly also in separate working sets), this should be ok.
It also requires that you have correct versioning av your Maven projects
(i.e. the two branches have different versions).

I don't see how two eclipse instances would make this easier. I think it
would rather make it more confusing.

My 2 cents,

Hi all,

I would not recommend to open those two projects in the same eclipse
workspace. As both projects mainly have the same elements, you will be
very confused when editing those elements.

Additionally, it might be necessary to specify different (local) maven
reposistories for both projects. This is not possible (at least not
easily) in one eclipse instance.

So my suggestion: Start two instances of eclipse with two different
workspaces!

Thomas

I assume you're using m2e?
I think the problem is that the eclipse project is named by artifactId
by
default. As there is already such a project (the main branch one), you
need
to change the project name. You so by using a name template.

I assume you're using m2e?
I think the problem is that the eclipse project is named by artifactId by
default. As there is already such a project (the main branch one), you need
to change the project name. You so by using a name template.
