Re: [m2e-users] Maven -> Update Project Configuration

m2e is not expected to add "random" builders to projects, so if can
provide standalone project and steps to reproduce the problem please
open bugreport in m2e bugzilla.

I had made a couple of changes to my settings.xml, basically to add a
new plugin repository, which affected one workspace I was working in and
not another which had a lot of existing code that had previously worked.

When I reopened this workspace, many projects were flagged with the
"need to update project configuration' error, so I updated. This left
uncompilable code. In some cases, this was probably a good thing as the
compiler options were not in synch, indicating holes in my setup and
easily fixed.

But in one annoying case that I can find no justification for, the
process inserted a JAXRS-builder into my project file. (Sorry I cannot
be more exact than that, I can no longer regenerate this configuration).
The project in question does not depend on building JAXRS although one
of its dependent modules did. The project would not build without my
manually removing this builder from the .project file, throwing a Null
Pointer exception. After removing this unwanted builder, no problem.

I did try to run Update Project Configuration again and this time it did
not insert the JAXRS builder.

Ironically, prior to this misadventure, I had been irritated by the fact
that m2e would not let the project build until the configuration was
resynched, and then when the resynch occurred, it had always worked, so
I thought, why not make this process automatic? I guess this is my
answer. This is a more complex project than the ones I'd previously been
playing with and there are still a few bugs to work out in the updater.
