Eclipse Ganymede - Maven

Today I installed new Eclipse version Ganymede. The Update Center have changed and I need Subversion Team support and also maven2 for my projects.

So these are the steps I go through plugin installation:

Subversion Team Support

Eclipse supports now subversion integration ”subversive”. You can install this additional plugins using the update manager

 

Switch to the tab "Available Software" and expand the "Ganymede" section. There you will find the "SVN Team Provider Plugin" under "Collaboration Tools"

I need further (maybe as I am using Linux ?) to follow these instructions:

http://blog.punchbarrel.com/2008/06/30/using-the-new-subversion-integration-in-eclipse-ganymede/

So I installed the SVNKit 1.1.7 - this works perfect. I don't think that this step is necessary under Windows.

Maven2 Plugin

The next part for me was to add Maven2 Plugin support into my Eclipse.

General Informations about this Plugin can be read here:
http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/

As the Maven Plugin Repository is not included in the Update Manager per default you need to add the Update Site manually.

So in the Update Manager switch to the tab "Available Software" and add the following Update Site to the Update Manager using the function "Add site"

http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/update/

 

You can now select the following Features from this Update Site:

  • Maven Integration
    • Maven Integration for Eclipse
    • Maven POM XML Edtior
    • Maven: The Definitive Guid book
  • Maven Project Configurators
    • Maven Integration for WTP
  • Optional Components 
    • Nexus index for Centra Maven repository

After that you need a additional plugin to checkout Maven Projects from a Subversion Repository (using the  context menu "check out as maven project"). These Subversive Integration is not included in the sonatype upates site. But it can be taken from the following update URL:

http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/integrations/update-site/

Again you need to add the Update Site manually.

 

After that you can add the Plugin

  • "Subversive Integration for the M2Eclipse Project"

to your eclipse IDE.

After all my new Eclipse Ganymede seems to be very cool.  Maven and Subversion works as perfect.

It's a pity that Eclipse Ganymede dos not integrate the Maven Plugin more easily....

After many troubles I managed to have Eclipse working with Subclipse. But still I think this release is not really much as stable as expected (as per Europa, for instance). I see some improvements in Ganymede, but also some minor regressions.

hi, after two days working I am really happy with eclipse ganymede. I am developing JEE Apps with Glassfish and Maven. And after I added the not included Plugins/Features for full Maven Support my Eclipse Ganymede works for me better than eclipse europe. But a reason for my impression can also be the fact that my eclipse europe was crowded with plugins and the new installation is still clean ;-)

In some cases it will help to select the subversive plugin not from the ganymede update site but form : http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/0.7/update-site/ This help to fix the problem with : Cannot complete the request. See the details. Unsatisfied dependency: [org.polarion.eclipse.team.svn.connector.svnkit.feature.group 2.0.2.I20080801-1500] requiredCapability: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.team.svn.feature.group/[0.7.2.I20080801-1500,1.0.0) Cannot find a solution where both Match[requiredCapability: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.team.svn.feature.group/[0.7.1.I20080612-1500,0.7.1.I20080612-1500]] and Match[requiredCapability: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.team.svn.feature.group/[0.7.2.I20080801-1500,1.0.0)] can be satisfied.

I enjoy using Eclipse for my development. However, I have run into problems after using tools such as Yoxos installer. Currently I have two SVN choices, and am not always able to use subversion. I fear losing the ability to remain productive to fix issues. and wonder if you can recommend a good support group for Eclipse installation issues? TIA, Judy
