Good day to you, Steffan,
Yes, that would do just fine. You can have something like
...
<profile>
<id>add-examples-that-compile-only-if-eclipse-is-installed</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>eclipse.dir</name>
</property>
</activation>
<modules>
<module>example-that-compiles-if-eclipse-is-installed</module>
</modules>
</profile>
...
This profile will add the module
"example-that-compiles-if-eclipse-is-installed" if eclipse.dir is set.
Or if you know exactly where your eclipse executable should be placed, you
can do
...
<profile>
<id>add-examples-that-compile-only-if-eclipse-is-installed</id>
<activation>
<file>
<exists>C:\Location\Of\Eclipse\Executable\eclipse.exe</exists>
</file>
</activation>
<modules>
<module>example-that-compiles-if-eclipse-is-installed</module>
</modules>
</profile>
...
Note: properties can not be used in file activation ( if you wish properties
to be used, kindly file a jira issue ). See [1] for more details.
Cheers,
Franz

I have defined a property eclipse.dir in my settings.xml. Is it possible
to skip a submodule
completely whenever eclipse.dir is not set? Or to check whether
eclipse.dir is a valid path?
What is best practice?
Eric: I am pretty new to maven so I would be very happy if you could
work out the
details of your approach a bit more.
Best regards,

Check out build profiles. You can check for the existance of some

eclipse installation, such as the eclipse executable file.

Hello,
I have something like the following project layout:
-project
-- library
-- program
-- examples
-- examples-that-compile-only-if-eclipse-is-installed
-- examples-that-do-not-need-eclipse
Concretely I use eclipse in headless mode to generate
some sources via maven-emfgen-plugin.
How can I tell maven to skip the examples depending on eclipse
if eclipse is not installed. Can I do this via profiles?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Best regards,
Steffen Mazanek
