Maven does not add dependency jar files to project when importing to eclipse

Question

Everything is loaded into the maven repository. Which is in my case located at C:\opt\m2\repository. I setted M2_REPO variable in eclipse to point to C:\opt\m2\repository and in command line i did mvn clean install.

Then I waited for 10 minutes for all the dependencies to be downloaded and went to check the repo. Everthing is downloaded to there.

Then I mvn eclipse:eclipse and import the project into eclipse.

Everything seems to be imported except all the maven dependencies. My project has 9409 Errors because its missing those jar files.

I did Project -> Clean no help.

I did F5 on project name, no help.

I did delete and import again, no help.

Just FYI, I tried m2e plugin as well, no help.

Did I missed anything?

This is the content of .classpath file:

The project is structured as parent - children project. One parent project and 8 children projects. Each of them has a pom.xml file.

The parent project is fine, I can compile it. However, none of the child project works because none of the dependency gets loaded into the project.

this are the dependencies for parent pom.xml

Answer 1

With the m2e plugin you don't need to do any of that manual kludging. Remove the project from your workspace, then go to File->Import->Maven->Existing Maven Projects. Walk through the dialogs to import your project and you're done.

Note that if there are any .classpath, .settings, or .project resources in your Maven project or any of its submodules, you will need to delete them prior to performing the import (mvn eclipse:clean is not sufficient to remove them). This is because they create conflicts with the m2e setup.

Answer 2

Try, in that order:

mvn eclipse:eclipse -Dwtpversion=2.0

mvn package

mvn eclipse:clean
