The Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven Eclipse
Plugin, version 2.8.
This plugin is used to generate Eclipse IDE files (*.classpath,
*.wtpmodules and the .settings folder) for use with a project. Please
see the plugin's site for details:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/
To use the updated plugin in your projects, you need to add the
following snippet to the plugins or plugin management section of your POM:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.8</version>
</plugin>
To use the updated plugin from command line, add the flag -U the next
time you invoke "mvn eclipse:eclipse" in order to have Maven check for
the update and download it.
