Sharma, Jaikumar commented on MECLIPSE-34:
------------------------------------------

It would be very helpful for eclipse plugin developers to build eclipse plugins using Maven, if this improvement / issue is resolve as soon as possible, becuase, I do not find any other way to build plugins using Maven 2, except after this improvement is implemented.

Thanks.

> java -cp %ECLIPSE_HOME%\startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
>  -application org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner -buildfile build.xml
