Maven “Module” vs “Project” (Eclipse, m2eclipse plugin)

October 18, 2022 by Tarik

They are basically the same thing, but with one difference. When you create a module, you must specify a parent project.

What causes imported Maven project in Eclipse to use Java 1.5 instead of Java 1.6 by default and how can I ensure it doesn’t?

So if you want a Maven project to be configured to use Java 1.6 settings when imported under Eclipse, configure the maven-compiler-plugin appropriately, as I already suggested: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.1</version> <configuration> <source>1.6</source> <target>1.6</target> </configuration> </plugin> If your project … Read more

How to solve “Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration” for Spring Data Maven Builds

September 5, 2022 by Tarik

In my case of a similar problem, instead of using Andrew’s suggestion for the fix, it worked simply after I introduced <pluginManagement> tag to the pom.xml in question. Looks like that error is due to a missing <pluginManagement> tag. So, in order to avoid the exceptions in Eclipse, one needs to simply enclose all the … Read more
