Re: [m2e-users] Eclipse support for Maven modules

[Simon Niederberger <simon.niederberger@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Ed

Only by importing the project structure does Eclipse receive the Maven "nature". So initially you're importing a Maven project into a plain Java project.

What you're looking for is to select the project, right-click and do "Update Maven project". This will (re-) apply everything defined in the pom.xml, and afterwards you should have your desired structure.

 Hi,

First time poster.

I like the Maven approach to modules and am using it for my projects with
the Eclipse IDE. Not quite getting something right though. After I have
committed a project to git and do a fresh checkout of it on a different
computer, it appears to forget all the module structure. The child projects
disappear and the main project changes the module source folders to regular folders.

Is there a configuration file other than pom.xml missing from my git commits?

Is it possible for me to restore the lost module structure?

Thank you,
Ed
