Problem with Eclipse and a Maven multi-module project
- by earth
I have created a Maven project with the following structure:
+ root-project
pom.xml (pom)
+ sub-projectA (jar)
+ sub-projectB (jar)
I have done the following steps:
mvn archetype:create –DgroupId=my.group.id –DartifactId=root-project
mvn archetype:create –DgroupId=my.group.id –DartifactId=sub-projectA
mvn archetype:create –DgroupId=my.group.id –DartifactId=sub-projectB
So I have, obviously, in the top-level pom.xml the following elements:
<modules>
<module>sub-projectA</module>
<module>sub-projectB</module>
</modules>
The last step was:
mvn eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse
Now if I import the root-project in Eclipse, it seems to look at my projects as resources and not like java projects.
However if I import each of child projects sub-projectA and sub-projectB, it looks them like java projects.
This is a big problem for me because I have a deeper hierarchy. Any help would be appreciated!
