We want to be able to create Eclipse Maven Java and Web projects, which depend on eachother, and check them into Subversion. We do this to drastically reduce the time it takes to set up a developer computer. If we bring a developer on, we want to be able to take a clean PC, install Java and MyEclipse, check out the projects from Subversion, and start coding. The only Eclipse configuration should be entering the Subversion URL. Everything else would come from the eclipse project files. This would save us days of configuration.
We also use IntelliJ, so a couple Maven projects get created outside of Eclipse, checked into subversion, and then need to be imported by MyEclipse developers. This is a problem when MyEclipse doesn’t support importing Maven projects that are not eclipse projects.
We would like to see two Maven Import processes added to MyEclipse:
– Java Maven Project from existing POM (with Subversion support)
– Web Maven Project from existing POM (with Subversion support – and support for dependency maven projects)
As of MyEclipse 7.5, when I checkout a maven project from subversion, and use the New Java Maven Project Wizard, MyEclipse does not consider the new project to be a Team project, so I cannot commit any changes back to subversion.
I would also like to see a new “Web Maven Project” wizard.
Keep up the good work!
