karniv0re's Journal: Upgrading Eclipse to Luna

Ugghhhh. Here we go again, with the Eclipse bullshit. (This will be sort of stream-of-consciousness as I'm just going to rant as I get this shit working...)

So I'm about ready to start a new project and I bit the bullet and upgraded to the latest "stable" (sarcasm detected) Eclipse release, Luna. I had been using Juno forever, with great disdain, but at least I knew most of its quirks. So now I get to learn all of Luna's quirks.

Starting with a little red X on each of my project POMs with the following error:

Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration: org.codehaus.mojo:build-helper-maven-plugin:1.5:add-source (execution: add-generated-source, phase: generate-sources)

I found this StackOverflow solution: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9263992/org-codehaus-mojo-not-visible-in-eclipse

Which basically just says to tell Eclipse to ignore it.

Next is this lovely little warning: "Implementation of project facet could not be found."

For that, I'm told to go delete .settings\org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml from EACH FUCKING PROJECT. And then do Maven updates. Or maybe restart Eclipse. Who knows. I hate you, Eclipse.

I'm also also getting issues connecting to the Marketplace. That's fucking annoying too. Had to switch from Native proxy to manual and enter a username/password.

Apparently Subclipse doesn't come installed. Gotta install that...

Restart one more time...

Annnddd, it's kinda almost maybe sort of working. Still got a bunch of little warnings that I'll need to get cleared up, but whatever. I'm tired and hungry. Time to go home. Stupid Eclipse...
