[m2e-users] Packaging type 'bundle' prevents 'Maven Dependencies' from b

[Lindsay Smith <linsmi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

 

I’m experimenting with a clean eclipse 3.7 installation, and I’ve installed m2e from the eclipse update site.  On the whole it looks slick, very nice.

 

However I have an issue – my projects have packaging type ‘bundle’.   It should be treated like a Java project, but when the project is set up I don’t the ‘Maven Dependencies’.    I’ve seen some comments around this area, such as this bug: 

 

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=337010

 

However this problem is still happening for these ‘bundle’ projects.  They have, naturally, plugins configured in the pom that handle this packaging type.

 

If I switch the packaging type to ‘jar’ and update the project configuration, I get the correct dependency group.  I can then switch it back and it stays around, so that’s my workaround at this stage.

 

Thanks
