Re: [m2e-users] maven plugin integration tips?
Firstly, be aware, if you're not already, that a plugin for JSPC compilation already exists; http://mojo.codehaus.org/jspc/index.html / http://mojo.codehaus.org/jspc/jspc-maven-plugin/usage.html

The current release, 2.0-alpha-3, despite the alpha label is stable and runs fine; it works with Tomcat 5 and Tomcat 6. The trunk also works with Tomcat 7, but isn't packaged up formally yet.

There's also a ticket open for this plugin on M2E integration - http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJSPC-56 - that has links to the relevant page, namely http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2E_compatible_maven_plugins

However, I find it just as easy to simply disable the JSPC compilation when running under M2E; it also aids with debugging. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=356311 for details of how this works for the afore mentioned plugin - you may find it easier to simply use this technique. either explicitly with another profile, or by detecting the presence of M2E within your plugin.

HTH,

Greg

I'm working on an update JSP compilation plugin and wondering how best
to make sure it plays nice with m2e. The plugin takes the JSP files and
generates java code, compiles that java code into class files, copies
those into the output directory and then modifies the web.xml file.

The plugin binds to process-classes to do all of the compilation/generation.

Are there things I should/should not do to get this plugin to nicely
integrate into m2e?

Thanks,
