I already tried this after I emailed you. Although it changes the name of the projects properly it doesn't name the referenced projects properly - so it doesn't build.
Works for me.

What is it that doesn't work exactly for you? The only thing I've found might be an issue is the .launch files in the examples which reference the project name.



As there is only one project involved I suggest we rename one of the artifactIds so that our code works in widest possible number of configurations, ie I don't think we should dictate that one uses one plug-in over another.

There will be several "applibs" when my sister projects are added in: the original applib, headless applib, restful applib, groovy applib, wicket applib, at least. So I'd prefer to find a way of working that supports artifacts with the same names, rather than hack around it.

I have a better solution; when importing into m2eclipse, specify the "name template" to include the groupId:artifactId.

Here's how:
1. File > Import
2. On the next dialog, Maven > Existing Maven Projects
3. On the next dialog
a) open up advanced, and for name template, select "[groupId].[artifactId]"
b) specify root directory
c) refresh
d) import

If you prefer to use mvn eclipse:eclipse to generate the .project/.classpath, then it is (see [1]):

mvn eclipse:eclipse -Declipse.projectNameTemplate="[groupId].[artifactId]"


I'll add that configuration to the root POM.

Make sense?

Our naming policy has caused a problem in Eclipse where multiple project with same name (eg progmodel) cannot be accommodated by it. We have three POMs with the same artifcact ID, two of which are Java/jar modules (the other is POM and doesn't seem to affect things). The eclipse plugin uses the artifact name for the Eclipse project name and therefore ends up with two projects with the same name.

Ideally we should change one of the module's artifact ID.
