Re: [m2e-users] (n00b Alert) why does my project build and execution environment change when converting to maven project?
Well what would you know, after a full day of restricted school internet, I come back home to a magically working Maven which builds on 1.6 :D . Thanks for your help guys :) Sent from my iPod On 9 Sep 2013, at 6:54 am, Jackson Isted wrote: Tried it and even added the java 1.6 library but as soon as I hit update project it fell back to 1.5 Sent from my iPod On 9 Sep 2013, at 12:33 am, Fred Bricon wrote: What version of m2e are you using? Since m2e 1.1, if you start with no pom.xml and right-click on your eclipse project and Configure...>Convert to Maven..., the generated pom.xml is supposed to contain the maven-compiler-plugin configuration matching your Eclipse JDT settings. If you already have a pom.xml, then, no settings conversion is done, m2e uses the already existing pom and you must do as Greg said.

[m2e-users] Please test fix for m2eclipse-tycho
Hi, If your maven/tycho based eclipse plugin references embedded jars in its classpath, you probably saw these classpath references disappear on Maven > Project Update (they come back after a 2nd project update). If you're interested in testing a patch I've made, you can test a fixed version from a p2 repo at http://dl.bintray.com/fbricon/maven/eclipse/m2eclipse-tycho/ or download a zipped p2 repo from http://dl.bintray.com/fbricon/maven/eclipse/m2eclipse-tycho/org.sonatype.tycho.update-0.7.0.201309070907.zip If it works (or not) for you, please add your feedback to https://github.com/tesla/m2eclipse-tycho/pull/12 Thanks.

[m2e-users] properties-maven-plugin with m2e
Hi, I need to implement some build mechanism to extract some resources out of my test plugin into an external folder. I achieve this using the maven-resources-plugin. Now I wan't to make the folder to copy the resources to configurable via properties. But for reusability I want to store the configuration in a properties file rather than in the pom directly. I found the properties-maven-plugin to exactly match my needs. And running the Maven build from console works fine. But in Eclipse I get an error saying the value for the configured outputDirectory is not valid. I guess that is because m2e can not resolve the property, as it will be loaded on build time and is not available when loading the pom in the editor in Eclipse. Now the question is, how can I enable the properties-maven-plugin to work with m2e? Another way would be to simply disable the error for that case, but I didn't find the configuration for that. Would that be possible? I also tried to specify the property in the pom and then let the plugin override the value. But that is not supported using Maven 3. Any help would be appreciated.

Wiki page [1] explains how to make a plugin compatible with m2e.

Sorry, although I'm signed into the mailing list I didn't receive your answer. Just saw it in the archive and hope this reply is added correctly to the discussion. If I understand your answer correctly, the link you posted suggests to modify the maven plugin itself? This is the only option to make the properties-maven-plugin work with m2e? I'm not the developer of the plugin. Just a user. Is there no other option? I just want to make the property that is set via that plugin available to other plugins in m2e so the errors disappear. I didn't wanted to contribute to a maven plugin, as I'm not familiar with that. Greez, Dirk ___ m2e-users mailing list m2e-users@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/m2e-users
Re: [m2e-users] properties-maven-plugin with m2e
The other possibility is to develop an m2e extension that "wraps" properties-maven-plugin execution during Eclipse workspace build. Judging by the plugin description [1], it should be next to trivial to make necessary changes at plugin level; m2e extension will be more work.
