m2e lifecycle-mapping not found
You can use this dummy plugin:
mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=org.eclipse.m2e -DartifactId=lifecycle-mapping -Dversion=1.0.0 -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-mojo
After generating the project install/deploy it.
Try using the build/pluginManagement
section, e.g. :
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.m2e</groupId>
<artifactId>lifecycle-mapping</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<configuration>
<lifecycleMappingMetadata>
<pluginExecutions>
<pluginExecution>
<pluginExecutionFilter>
<groupId>org.bsc.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-processor-plugin</artifactId>
<versionRange>[2.0.2,)</versionRange>
<goals>
<goal>process</goal>
</goals>
</pluginExecutionFilter>
<action>
<execute />
</action>
</pluginExecution>
</pluginExecutions>
</lifecycleMappingMetadata>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
Here's an example to generate bundle manifest during incremental compilation inside Eclipse :
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.m2e</groupId>
<artifactId>lifecycle-mapping</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<configuration>
<lifecycleMappingMetadata>
<pluginExecutions>
<pluginExecution>
<pluginExecutionFilter>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<versionRange>[1.0.0,)</versionRange>
<goals>
<goal>manifest</goal>
</goals>
</pluginExecutionFilter>
<action>
<execute />
</action>
</pluginExecution>
</pluginExecutions>
</lifecycleMappingMetadata>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.6</target>
<encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3.7</version>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<configuration>
<instructions>
</instructions>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>manifest</id>
<phase>process-classes</phase>
<goals>
<goal>manifest</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
versionRange is required, if omitted m2e (as of 1.1.0) will throw NullPointerException.
The org.eclipse.m2e:lifecycle-mapping
plugin doesn't exist actually. It should be used from the <build><pluginManagement>
section of your pom.xml
. That way, it's not resolved by Maven but can be read by m2e.
But a more practical solution to your problem would be to install the m2e build-helper connector in eclipse. You can install it from the Window
> Preferences
> Maven
> Discovery
> Open Catalog
. That way build-helper-maven-plugin:add-sources
would be called in eclipse without having you to change your pom.xml
.
