Eclipse annoyance, take 2...

Two weeks ago, I complained about some issues I had with Eclipse. No, I don't want to use any kind of additional plugin to manage my Maven build : it's far too complex for Eclipse...

Now, Eclipse is making me loose my precious time again. Something that worked pretty fine on older versions (3.2... oh dear...) simply does not work anymore. Namely, I have run mvn eclipse:eclipse on some project, and get it working just fine. Except that Eclipse still claims that "Project 'mina-core' is missing required library: '/home/elecharny/.m2/repository/cglib/cglib-nodep/2.1_2/cglib-nodep-2.1_2.jar'". WTF ??? I have done a 'clean all', without any success...

Boring... So boring ... Any Idea around there ?

Side note : I don't know what's going on with Eclipse, but it's now two years that the platform is piling features on top of features, while the core is less and less stable. May be it's time to go back to basic : focusing on what users *really* need. A stable IDE.
