[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-32?page=comments#action_76883 ] Kenney Westerhof commented on MECLIPSE-32: ------------------------------------------
Hm. Not sure I like this solution in this case. I've got the same issue here - when importing the m2 source tree and plexus, and I wouldn't want to update the m2 poms with eclipse plexus config ;) You can just use the reactor: mvn eclipse:eclipse -r -Dmaven.reactor.includes=root/pom.xml,path/to/backport-util/pom.xml If this is sufficient we could close this issue. > Allow for forcing the creation of direct project references for dependencies > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MECLIPSE-32 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-32 > Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: multiproject > Affects Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: Barry Kaplan > > For some thirdparty dependencies, it is common (for me at least) that an > eclipse project for that dependency does/will exist in the workspace.
