Eclipse, Maven, and Groovy, oh my!

The groovy support in Eclipse leaves a bit to be desired. "Tell me something new" you say. How about - The groovy support in maven projects within eclipse leaves a lot to be desired, but it does at least exist, so long as you are willing to work at it a bit.

Rather than posting the details off in the wilderness of my own blog, I responded to a post on the m2eclipse (the maven-eclipse plugin) mail list from last Fall where someone was asking how to add groovy support to maven projects. The author of the m2eclipse plugin stated that the groovy plugin needed to support some hooks into m2eclipse. While that may be true to get fully automated setup and synchronization, you can get the two plugins working together. See this thread for the info:
