Hallo

We have moved some projects to maven, and are now facing some quite boring 
issues with the m2eclipse plug-in. I don't want to blame someone. Thanks for 
creating the plug-in! But no matter what I need to solve these problems :)

I wonder if the following issues are known or there is some workaround (most 
where mentioned by several of our developers):

 - Eclipse does not refresh/update Problems after compile/install. Even 
   If 'run as - mvn install' builds successfully eclipse shows some 
   Source files to have errors. 
   If I close the project, re-open it and repeat the clean/install steps
   The problems disappear. What triggers those updates?
   This is boring when a dependant project needs to run but does not want
   to, because eclipse reports those errors (we start apps with launch
   files).

 - During Debugging sources are not found. Sometimes even if the project
   is open and in the current workspace. We export a source jar from all
   of our projects, the source-jar is downloaded from the maven repository
   but during debug that does not matter.

 - During debug the 'inspect code' feature is unavailable. Eclipse 
   reports that the source is not in the current classpath (the jar is 
   in the local repository and not within the eclipse workspace)

 - when multiple projects are used (project a depends on project b) and
   I install project a, project b is not built automatically, with multiple
   Modules every developer has to manually build on project after the other
   In the correct order.


We currently use m2eclipse from the DEV update site with eclipse 3.2.2 resp. 
eclipse 3.3. The current stable version did not work as well as the dev 
version. Especially the test-jars where not included. Beside the problems above 
the DEV version is the better one for us.


So: hints or any kind of comments, advice or wishes are welcome :)

If some of those things should be reported to the bug tracker please tell me to 
do so.


Thanks a lot
Regards

Werner
