The latest maven idea plugin release generates ipr's etc, but contain
many problems, however they have fixed those problems in the next
version. I use the latest snapshot of the idea plugin with maven 2.0.2
(requires at least 2.0.1, 2.0 will corrupt it) and this works like a charm:
mvn idea:idea
even in multiprojects
We'll try but I'm not sure that will make it into the release cycle for
plug-ins in the next 25-30 days.
So I hope they release the new version of the idea plugin soon :)

I finally decided to look at Maven, and I'm wondering how what the
actual workflow is when I use an IDE such as Idea.
I used to use Eclipse, and I remember at one point there was a plugin
that kept an Eclipse project (.project file) continuously in sync with
the POM file. So if you use the Eclipse UI to add another source path
or an external JAR, the POM gets updated automatically.
With Idea, it looks like you can only take an existing POM and
generate an Idea project file, and it seems like a oneway trip. Any
modifications that you make to the project using Idea's UI will only
live in the Idea project and will get wiped the next time you generate
the project from the POM. Is this the case?
Further, Idea has a refactoring that will move code between different
Idea modules. If each Idea module corresponds to a Maven repository,
is there any hope of having this refactoring work on the POMs, too?
Thanks,
Willis Morse
