2. Open a command line and change to the source root folder. Execute the following Maven 2 command to ready the project for Eclipse. It will take around two minutes.

   Code Block
   mvn eclipse:eclipse

   In case you did never use Maven before and get errors stating that some plugins or the like are missing, like for example:

   Code Block

   [INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'eclipse'. Downloading: http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/maven2/org/apache/servicemix/tooling/jbi-maven-plugin/3.0-incubating/jbi-maven-plugin-3.0-incubating.jar [WARNING] Unable to get resource from repository central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Plugin could not be found - check that the goal name is correct: Unable to download the artifact from any repository

   execute the commands stated under "Build ServiceMix..." in the chapters Windows / Unix source installation:

   Code Block
   mvn -Dprofile=step1 mvn -Dprofile=step2

   and then retry.

In Eclipse:

1. From the "File" menu select "Import". 
   
   
    
2.  Select "Existing Projects into Workspace" and click "Next" 
   
   
    
3. Browse for the root directory, which is the directory in which you downloaded ServiceMix.  "Select All" the files in the Import pop-up window. They are probably already pre-selected for you (check box is checked).  Un-checking the option "Copy projects into workspace" allows you to automatically always edit the current version of the SVN checkout folder, thus avoiding an import after each SVN update. Click "Finish" in the Import window; the import takes around three minutes.
