You can download the package for this OpenTool here

The latest version is 0.2

Installation is pretty straight forward:

  • Copy the maven-ui-jbuilder-VERSION.jar file into the JBuilderVERSION/lib/ext directory

This tool works a lot like the existing Ant integration that JBuilder includes in version 7 and above.

  1. Add your project.xml project file to your JBuilder project
  2. The tool will then recognize all the available plugins for your project and will display them as children of the Maven project file.
  3. If you right-click on the project.xml file, you can set options when Maven will get executed, such as activating debug mode or offline mode.
  4. You can right-click on any goal (you can't right click on plugins) and execute the goal selected by clicking on "Make"
  5. You can also set a maven goal as a "Build Target" in the RunTime configuration menu, and it will be launched just before the application gets started when you run your project (useful for deployment for example)
