Hi all. I'll preface this with my apologies, because I'm sure this is a super simple/fundamental question. I've been developing in .net for a few years but I'm considering switching over to Java explicitly for storm, since it fits our current data-processing model so well. I've done lots of reading on the topic, and I've run the storm-starter project, but I'm having problems starting from square one.
I'm trying to initialize a brand new storm project from scratch, and I'm confused by how maven is supposed to play into things here. I created my directory 'storm-experiments', and added 'pom.xml' in that directory. The contents of my 'pom.xml' can be seen at http://pastebin.com/D31QMpvy. From inside of the 'storm-experiments' directory, I ran the command 'mvn -f pom.xml eclipse:eclipse' and let the command execute. After a bunch of downloads were automated, I eventually got a satisfying "BUILD SUCCESS" message from maven. Hurray! However, absolutely nothing has changed in my 'storm-experiments' directory. I was under the assumption that this might somehow set up my eclipse environment, but that doesn't seem to be the case. So my question is simple. I've run the above noted maven command, but nothing seems to have been modified in my working directory. Did I do something wrong or am I missing what happened under the hood? If everything is right, what is the next step for starting up initializing my storm project, working in Eclipse? Thanks in advance, and thank you for developing such an awesome looking technology.
