I use eclipse with m2eclipse and the support for multi modules is right. Netbeans has a great maven support with mevenide (may be the best) and some co-workers use IDEA and are very happy with its maven support. >From my experience a mavenized project is buildable from command line and with majors IDEs. I've got a decent experiences after converting more than 100 projects from ant to maven and make them as confortable under Eclipse than previously. Using maven and keeping the actual layout will be possible, but will complexify the mvn and poms. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
