[pdt-dev] Sorry maybe this is a stupid one

[Carsten Harnisch <carsten.harnisch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
just started with PDT dev but still after many weeks stucked at the starting point. So after doing a checkout and a maven build we have the build done but only on the command line (mvn compile, etc.) 
Just wondering how one can debug the resulting artefact ? So trying to build directly in Eclipse would fail - basically all the OSGi, P2 dependencies are missing.

So my question is basically if there is any way to make the Eclipse build system working and how to debug PDT from within Eclipse ? As far as I understood the Maven build (within Eclipse or externally) is a complete different thing than the Eclipse build ? So seems to be weird to build Eclipse NOT with Eclipse but with Maven ?

Any help appreciated ...

best
