REISSUING: It should be possible to add additional classpath entries in plugin 
configuration (MECLIPSE-41)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MECLIPSE-205
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-205
             Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.2
            Reporter: Amit Kasher


The following scenario demonstrates the issue:
1. Project A is managed by maven and it depends on project B which is not 
managed by maven. The dependency is with the logical scope of "compile".
2. Using maven's install:install-file plugin, project B's JAR file is installed 
in the repository.
3. Project A is set to depend on this JAR file in its POM (compile scope).
4. Both projects are developed in the same eclipse repository.

The problem is that when classes in project B are changed, the only way to see 
these changes when developing project A is to regenerate project B's jar, 
install it in maven's repository and refresh project A.

The ideal solution would be to set eclipse's plugin's configuration in project 
A's pom to something like this:

......
......
<configuration>
        <additionalClasspathEntries>
                <kind>src</kind>
                <path>/projectB</path>
                <replacesDependencies>
                        <dependency>
                                <groupId>com.myprojects</groupId>
                                <artifactId>projectB</artifactId>
                                <version>1.0</version>
                        </dependency>
                </replacesDependencies>
        </additionalClasspathEntries>
</configuration>
