Usage

Eclipse settings

In order to automatically configure a single project within, use the following Maven configuration:

<build>
  <plugins>
    ...
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-remote-resources-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>${version.resources-plugin}</version>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>jdt-settings</id>
          <goals>
            <goal>process</goal>
          </goals>
          <configuration>
            <attachToMain>false</attachToMain>
            <attachToTest>false</attachToTest>
            <resourceBundles>
              <resourceBundle>com.github.sebhoss:jdt-settings:${version.jdt-settings}</resourceBundle>
            </resourceBundles>
            <outputDirectory>${project.basedir}/.settings</outputDirectory>
          </configuration>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
    ...
  </plugins>
</build>

Maven/CI settings

In order to re-use the same compiler settings in both the Eclipse project configuration and the normal build system, add the following configuration on top the previous one:

<build>
  <plugins>
    ...
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>${version.compiler-plugin}</version>
      <configuration>
        <compilerId>jdt</compilerId>
        <compilerArguments>
          <properties>${project.basedir}/.settings/org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs</properties>
        </compilerArguments>
      </configuration>
      <dependencies>
        <!-- This dependency provides the implementation of compiler "jdt" -->
        <dependency>
          <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
          <artifactId>tycho-compiler-jdt</artifactId>
          <version>${version.tycho}</version>
        </dependency>
      </dependencies>
    </plugin>
    ...
  </plugins>
</build>
