Re: [m2e-users] Improved "import maven project" workflow in m2e 1.5.0 
Heh. This is the first time I hear someone uses working sets as working
sets.

All people I talked to before use working sets as a workaround for
lack of proper multimodule project support. It was certainly annoying
following the same 5+ steps process needed to create and select new
working set each time I imported a project. The updated wizard is
definite improvement for my workflow.

Unfortunately, I don't see a good way to automatically and conveniently
group modules of the same aggregator and to allow flexible
working set selection during import. Any suggestions anybody?

I tend to have a lot of single maven projects, these are normally
grouped under plugins or utils working sets, for multi-module projects
these are generally in there own working sets.

how about having radio buttons (generate working set/choose working
set), this could grey out the old select dialog that was there previously?

    How often do you import multi-module projects into existing working set?
    Can you describe your workflow that leads into this?

        Hi Fred,

        i liked the old way to choose an existing working set, wouldn't
        it be
        better to have the old drop down with a button to create a new
        working set?

             Hi,

             we've made some drastic changes in the way the "Import Maven
             projects" workflow in m2e 1.5.0 [1]. Previously, when
        selecting a
             directory of projects to import, m2e spent a huge amount of
        time
             analyzing potential lifecycle mapping errors and discover
        potential
             fixes from remote connectors, before you could even choose
        which
             specific projects to import.

             That lifecycle mapping analysis has been deferred to *after*
             projects are imported and it only checks for *actual*
        errors now,
             before trying to discover the world. The discovery
        mechanism itself
             has also been greatly optimized.

             It means the 1st page of the maven import wizard can now
        refresh in
             less than a couple second (usually << 1s), instead of up to
        several
             minutes.
             One caveat is it won't try to discover connectors that for
        plugins
             whose lifecycle is already covered. ex: the mavenarchiver
        plugin
             won't be proposed for download if the maven-jar-plugin has
        no errors.

             The lifecycle mapping discovery refactoring led to a few
        internal
             classes to be deleted or changed in a non backward
        compatible way,
             so if you built some m2e extensions over these, you might
        be badly
             affected. Check [2] to see the extent of the changes.

             So, please, give the latest dev build a try [3] and let's
        know how
             good or bad the changes are from your perspective.
