The Maven command reads the pom.xml files to obtain the dependencies
and basic project structure. I don't think there are POM files in the
exploded WAR, so you would have to work from the source distribution
or checkout.

Starting from the root of the struts2 source distribution (you see all
folders and a single pom.xml), with Maven 2 installed, you can run

$  mvn eclipse:eclipse

and the Maven eclipse plugin will generate all the Eclipse setup
files. Likewise for IDEA

$  mvn idea:idea

Don,
Where do I run the mvn command from? From the exploded code in Tomcat?
Or from the download? Sorry, a bit lost here.

Thanks,
