Re: [m2e-users] Eclipse support for Maven modules
Hi Ed,

In addition to what Simon mentioned, you could import your parent project as a maven project. Under the import options you have the option to import maven project where you have to select the folder, then you will see all project/modules which you can select to be imported into your workspace. Hope this will solve the problem.

Best regards,
Gayan.

Hi Ed

Only by importing the project structure does Eclipse receive the Maven "nature". So initially you're importing a Maven project into a plain Java project.
What you're looking for is to select the project, right-click and do "Update Maven project". This will (re-) apply everything defined in the pom.xml, and afterwards you should have your desired structure.

 Hi,

First time poster.

I like the Maven approach to modules and am using it for my projects with
the Eclipse IDE. Not quite getting something right though. After I have
committed a project to git and do a fresh checkout of it on a different
computer, it appears to forget all the module structure. The child projects
disappear and the main project changes the module source folders to regular folders.

Is there a configuration file other than pom.xml missing from my git commits?

Is it possible for me to restore the lost module structure?

Thank you,
Ed
