Building Eclipse Plugins with Maven 2

Monday, February 19, 2007 - 16:19 by Wayne Beaton

A new Eclipse Corner article has been published that discusses the use of Maven 2 to build Eclipse Plug-ins.

The abstract reads:

In a mature and agile development environment, it is vital that the developers are kept productive and that builds are done continuously and dependably. Eclipse is a great environment for developers and Maven 2 (in conjunction with Continuum or Cruise Control) is a great environment for continuous integration. As with most great software, both Eclipse and Maven 2 tend to be somewhat opinionated and the two don’t always see eye to eye on how things should be done. This article describes how to use Maven 2 with Eclipse in general. In particular we will focus on how to develop, package and test Eclipse plugins using Eclipse (Callisto) and Maven 2 (2.0.4) efficiently.
