Re: [m2e-users] m2e plugin execution enhances classes but eclipse resources are then out of sync

It would be nice if you could configure the lifecycle-mappnig to tell the m2e MavenBuilder that the classes have been modified by a plugin execution and that it should refresh the class resources in eclipse without triggering a new incremental build. 

Something like this...

<action>
  <execute>
    <modifiesClassFiles>true</modifiesClassFiles>
  </execute>
</action>

I'm just thinkg that might remove the need to create an m2e extension to get this to work. 

Cheers,

Anthony
