Create a POM that you use as a parent to both. If you build this POM, the
eclipse=plugin for Maven will automatically add project B as a dependency in
A. And it will add it as Eclipse project-dependencies, not as
JAR-dependencies.
Small example:
<project>
<groupId>some.thing</groupId>
<artifactId>eclipse-master-pom</artifactId>
<version>unversioned</version>
<modules>
<module>../project-a</module>
<module>../project-b</module>
</modules>
</project>
