Eclipse (IDE)

General Resources
Maven Integration
According to the Maven Eclipse Plugin page, the path to the local maven repository can be added to an eclipse workspace with
mvn -Declipse.workspace=<path-to-eclipse-workspace> eclipse:add-maven-repo
It's not quite clear to me what this does. Apparently, from then on, eclipse-specific project files can be generated with
mvn eclipse:eclipse
and then the project can be imported into the workspace.
