Hey,

After working for clients who have been using IntelliJ I now need to get acquainted with Eclipse for my new client. However things are not as I expected. I'll clarify. Also keep in mind that I might have been going about this the wrong way.

So I have a java project which has modules and is built using Maven. This project also has other directories with resources.

When I try to import such a project I need to associate it with a project? Why is that?

When I select "new project from SVN" it might go better, but it doesn't. It imports the root of the project as a java project just fine, BUT, the modules are NOT configured as Java project and I can't seem to find an easy way to do this.

But I mean, come on! I do this using IntelliJ in one minute, seriously. One selects new project -> maven -> <browse to project pom> and that is it! It's working there as it should with all nessessary associations to Spring, Hibernate, Maven, SVN, ...

Sorry but I'm seriously frustrated. If anyone knows how to properly do this, by all means, enlighten me.

This forum is about Java Development tools (JDT), your question would be
better answered in 'Maven Integration' or 'IAM (Eclipse Integration for
Apache Maven)' forum.

That depends. I'm also having trouble connecting to SVN, launching JUnit tests and installing new / existing plugins. I can't really make up my mind which forum to take so I took this one.

As Deepak mentioned, you should probably ask about the MAVEN integration
in one of the maven forums. http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/ has been
used for maven integration in eclipse.

I'll also mention that eclipse only supports one level of projects, in
the root of the workspace. That's probably why importing your SVN maven
tree resulted in one project with a lot of less-useful sub-modules. The
m2eclipse guys might have a solution for dealing with modules as well.
