Hello,
I am not reading the mailing lists on a regular basis so please
forgive me if that issue was raised already.
I do not want to restructure the SCM, so I made a symbolic link to
the source code. That works fine with Maven in general, but the
eclipse plugin substitutes the link with the hard path and adds it to
the .classpath file when you call 'mvn eclipse:eclipse'. The Eclipse
IDE does not except folders outside of the project folder and for
that the generated Eclipse project cannot be opened in Eclipse and
returns an error.
My current workaround is a shell script that creates a <project
base>/src/main/java folder, calls 'mvn eclipse:eclipse' then deletes
the java folder and creates the <project base>/src/main/java link to
the sources.
Does anybody have a better suggestion?
