Re: [m2e-dev] m2e-ifying maven plugins

[Jason van Zyl <jason@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Why not just use m2e-webby or m2e-wtp. Both provide workspace resolution. The Maven WAR plugin is for packaging which doesn't really play a part inside the workspace. You generally wouldn't package a WAR file in Eclipse. I'm curious why you need to do this? I honestly don't think that patch to the Maven WAR plugin makes sense at first blush. I honestly don't understand the use case.

I sent in a patch to the folks who maintain the maven-war-plugin to support resolving workspace artifacts. http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-269 ... The issue is dead in the water.

Would you all be willing to throw some weight behind it to get it back in front of the eyes of the maintainers?
