Hello All,

I wonder whether this is possible to configure project in Eclipse for running 
and debugging code on JBoss server if project itself is managed by Maven?

Using pure Maven means (without applying JBoss AS Tools) wastes the time: each 
minor fix in any EJB requires the EAR to be rebuilt fully and redeployed on the 
server.

The goal is to be able to edit and debug server-side code in Eclipse in design 
time [using JBoss AS Tools] while still having ability to build the whole 
project by Maven for release.

The trouble is that Maven exposes some requirements to the structure of the 
project: 
* location of source and target files (they all may be changed, but this is not 
the best idea for maven projects) For example, location of java files is not 
/ejbModule (as AS Tools suggests usually), but /src/main/java
* eclipse .project file is generated automatically by maven plugin based on 
pom.xml (project object model, maven main descriptor). Although, Maven plugin 
does not produce J2EE Eclipse project. Generated project does not contain 
'Project Facets' in Project Properties (neither natures nor builders inside 
.project).  Thus JBoss Server Manager Reference Guide 
http://docs.jboss.org/tools/3.0.1.GA/en/as/html/index.html is hardly applied.
Manual editing .project file like here: 
http://greatwebguy.com/programming/eclipse/converting-a-java-project-to-a-dynamic-web-project-in-eclipse/
 could help adding facets, but this is awkward solution since it has to be done 
each time after project's source code is checked out from repository and 
.project file is generated for eclipse.


Thanks,
Alex.
