Answer 1

I know its too late But this could help others who are searching for same problem.

suppose you have 2 projects p1 and p2 and you want to use p2 project's classes in p1 project then,

A) Right Click on your p2 maven project(If not maven project then convert it to maven) then
-->Choose Run As-->Click on Maven Install. (It will make p2 to avaliable for other projects in your local maven repository)

B) Now you can simply add p2 project as dependency in p1 project's pom.xml file like this

  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.project.p2</groupId>
    <artifactId>p2</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <scope>compile</scope>
  </dependency>
