Multi-modules in Eclipse

Hi

At some point there was some talk of creating a util to help import
multi-module projects into Eclipse. Did anything come of it?

Hmm.. I guess you are talking about maven2. If maven2 does that it'll
be awesom. Any idea whether this is possible in Maven 1 ?

That's what exactly what we do, but the "mounting" is logical. The 
interdependencies are set to the projects instead of jars by the maven 
eclipse plugin if you run mvn eclipse:eclipse from the root.

Thanks,
Raymond

Hi guys,
There were some thoughts of mounting the whole module directory as a
workspace and have each module mounted as a project . That way you can
set interdependancies set to projects. However the maven plugin is not
capable of doing that I guess.

Re: Multi-modules in Eclipse

Hi,

We (Tuscany developers using Eclipse) run "mvn eclipse:eclipse" to create 
the IDE artifacts such as .project and .classpath after the SVN checkout. 
And then you can import (existing) projects into Eclipse. It's very 
straightforward. The only caveat comes from the maven eclipse plugin which 
doesn't support inclusion/exclusion patterns and as a result you cannot have 
overlapping source folders for one module.

Thanks,
Raymond

Eclipse users in Tuscany are using the maven-eclipse-plugin - not one  
myself so I don't know how well it works (I think there may be a few  
gremlins).

Are you asking about setting up Synapse in Eclipse? If so what I do is run
'maven eclipse' in each of the Synapse module folders - core, extensions,
nhttp, samples. Then from inside eclipse do File -> Import, choose 'Existing
projects into workspace' (which is in General if you're on Eclipse 3.2).
Browse to the Synapse module folder and click finish and it will find the 4
Synapse module projects. Finally set up the eclipse classpath variable for
the maven repository: Window -> Preferences Java -> Build Path - Classpath
Variable, choose New and the Name is MAVEN_REPO and browse to find your
maven repo which is something like "C:/Documents and
Settings/ant/.maven/repository".

Re: Multi-modules in Eclipse

Posted by Daniel Jemiolo <da...@us.ibm.com>.

Hi Paul,

We are about to set up this kind of thing for the Muse project, so you 
might find this helpful (it's not perfect, any feedback is appreciated).

The plan is to set up SVN as follows:

/trunk
  /modules
    /your-module-1
    /your-module-2
    ...etc.

/eclipse
  /modules
    /your-module-1
    /your-module-2
    ...etc.


Here, /trunk contains all of the code and build artifacts as it does 
today. The /eclipse directory has the same structure, but each of the 
module directories (your-module-1, etc.) only has the Eclipse project 
files, .project and .classpath. If a user wanted to work on, say, 
your-module-1, he would:

1. Checkout the /eclipse/modules/your-module-1 directory, creating an 
empty Eclipse project.

2. Checkout the /trunk/modules/your-module-1 directory into that Eclipse 
project.

3. Accept the warning about re-mapping the project to a new SVN directory 
- he only needed the two project files. 


This system has the advantage of keeping /trunk free of IDE-specific 
artifacts, and it won't get cluttered if you add support for other IDEs. 
Perhaps it could be improved through some kind of utility to automate the 
addition of the Eclipse project files, but that's what we've planned so 
far. Hope this helps, and let me know if you have any ideas for 
improvement.

Dan
