Developing Eclipse plugin with Maven
Are there any *good* guides to building an Eclipse plugin using Maven, preferably in a way that allows it to be developed in Eclipse? I don't really have any dependencies other than standard Eclipse packages, but I want all the great lifecycle and site management tools that Maven supplies. I've seen: http://www.eclipse.org/articles/article.php?file=Article-Eclipse-and-Maven2/index.html by Peter H. Petersen, and Sumit Gupta, of Princeton Softech, from 2006. I've also seen: https://cwiki.apache.org/UIMA/building-eclipse-plugins-with-maven-bundle-plugin-and-friends.html by Marshall Schor, from 2008. Are these reasonable? Is there something newer? The former is what you get when you search the eclipse site. It's pretty crude. -K - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org

Re: Developing Eclipse plugin with Maven
BTW, what I'm developing is a relatively throwaway plugin for Mac Cocoa Eclipse to set the represented filename for the active editor in the associated window. This enables software such as DTerm, which provides a convenient terminal window, to correctly get the directory associated with the active file. I'm using DTerm because EGit/JGit aren't really complete yet and I need command-line git. If good support for git svn isn't built into EGit at some point, I'll probably always need DTerm. The current non-mavenized plugin is at http://github.com/khuxtable/eclipse-cocoa-set-represented-filename It works, but I want it mavenized. -K On Jun 25, 2010, at 4:04 PM, Jason van Zyl wrote: Tycho. http://tycho.sonatype.org It's used to build M2Eclipse, Eclipse EGit, Eclipse Memory Analyzer, and Antlr IDE.

Re: Developing Eclipse plugin with Maven
Change the names accordingly, but you should be able to drop this in and build with Maven 3: http://gist.github.com/453490 This won't work with Maven 2.x.
