How to add "Maven Managed Dependencies" library in build path eclipse?

from the command line type:

mvn eclipse:eclipse

this will add all the dependencies you have in your pom.xml into eclipse...

however, if you haven't done any of this before you may need to do one other, one time only step.

Close eclipse, then run the following command from the shell:

mvn -Declipse.workspace=<eclipse workspace> eclipse:add-maven-repo

sample:

mvn -Declipse.workspace=/home/ft/workspaces/wksp1/ eclipse:add-maven-repo

If you have m2e installed and the project already is a maven project but the maven dependencies are still missing, the easiest way that worked for me was

• right click the project,
• Maven,
• Update Project...
