Eclipse/PDE integration

It is possible to configure the Maven Bundle Plugin to put the bundle manifest where Eclipse/PDE expects it, and use the Maven Dependency Plugin to arrange for any embedded dependencies to appear in a local directory that matches the Bundle-ClassPath entries. Here is an example POM that does this:

To generate the Eclipse metadata use:

Code Block

mvn clean eclipse:eclipse -Declipse.pde install}}

and you should now be able to import this as an existing Eclipse project.

FYI: the above POM was generated using the pax-create-bundle command from Pax-Construct and then tweaked to demonstrate using the Maven Dependency Plugin to handle embedded jars in Eclipse.

With the original Pax-Construct generated POM you would simply use:

Code Block

mvn clean pax:eclipse

to create the appropriate Eclipse files and manifest, and also handle any embedded entries. The pax:eclipse goal extends eclipse:eclipse, and supports the same parameters.
