There's nothing stopping you from using Eclipse to check it out. However, you're going to want to close the eclipse project, move the files outside of your workspace, and delete the project. Due to the way maven works, you'll then reimport the project(s) back in later. At the bottom of "Building With Maven" is Building MyFaces in your IDE http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Building_MyFaces_in_your_IDE On this page is a link to: Eclipse IDE - Using MyFaces in Eclipse If you follow the directions here, you'll have all of your questions answered. The Eclipse documentation for this has been worked over several times and should be easy to follow at this point. You can also find this page by clicking on the following link on the FrontPage. Building MyFaces in your IDE - Building, Debugging and Deploying MyFaces in your IDE I also find it easiest to check out the files using TortoiseSVN, however, as it saves me the step of stopping the build, closing the project, moving the files, and deleting the project. > But whats next ? Maven has compiled the following jars: > - myfaces-api-1.1.4-SNAPSHOT.jar [...] There is also myfaces-impl-*.jar, tomahawk-*.jar, and tomahawk-sandbox-*.jar. Try looking in the */core/target/ directories. As for the problem of finding the information in the first place, please feel free to suggest (or implement) improvements!
