Re: [m2e-users] Setting up a fresh development environment for Eclipse R

[Kerem Onal <keremonal@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Ralph. I need to know more if you succeed what I want.

m2e does not support maven-dependency-plugin. So I put the copy-dependencies into validate phase:

       <execution>
           <id>copy-dependencies</id>

           <phase>validate</phase>
           <goals>

               <goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
           </goals>
       </execution>

Then I tried to run mvn validate after checking out the project sources from SVN.

But I cannot succeed to copy bundle-classpath dependencies from repo to local lib folder.

copy-dependencies tries to find the Require-Bundle dependencies which I do not need. 

Do you have a solution?

I think you are right, I'm doing the same thing with Eclipse plugins that need dependencies that are not OSGi bundles, and I've learned the technique from m2e-core :)

Thing is that maven-dependency-plugin is not supported by m2e out of the box. It is on my radar for the further work on m2e connectors, after I publish the first batch.

Rafał

Hi,

I wonder if I use m2e in correct manner.

I am developing an Eclipse RCP application with ~10 plugins so I use tycho.

I think the correct usage is that I check out projects from SVN then "update dependencies" via m2e when setting up a fresh development environment. Am I right? 

We have two types of dependencies: bundle-classpath and require-bundle.

For the "update dependencies" phase I need m2e to put my bundle-classpath dependencies to my local lib folder. Else my projects will not compile. For this purpose I should use the pom.xml below to achive this. Am I right?

       <execution>
           <id>copy-dependencies</id>
           <goals>
               <goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
           </goals>
       </execution>

Thanks,

Lembas
