Eugene Kuleshov closed MNGECLIPSE-171.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
The only reason to enable maven nature is to make dynamic dependency resolution
to work. So, it really does not make any sense to have it without java nature.
Besides, you don't have to enable maven support and add maven nature if you
don't need dynamic dependency resolution.
Also note, that pom packaging can be used in a root pom.xml and submodules may
go into the same Eclipse project (unless flat module layout is used). So, those
modules will give java source folders even if root module does not have any
source folders. We already have update source folders action that takes care of
this.

> It's my feeling that adding the java-nature to in essence 'simple' projects
> of packaing-type 'pom' is not desirable since it will make eclipse go and
> look for java source-folders and wrongly interpret module-directories and the
> nested src/main/java as package-names leading to lists of errors about bad
> package names.
> I'm unsure if the goal of this plugin is ever to support these kind of
> pom-projects in eclipse or not, for now the safe bet looks like trying to
> enable such a project of type 'pom' should be disabled?
