IAM Buckminster Integration
< To: IAM
What is Buckminster
Buckminster is a component resolution and materialization framework presented as a plugin for Eclipse. For detailed information about this technology, please visit the Buckminster Project wiki.
Materializing Maven dependencies
When it's finished, Buckminster integration will allow IAM users to materialize Maven dependencies in their Eclipse workspace. That means that the user will be able to navigate through a Maven project's list of dependencies and to select what dependencies will be materialized in his/her workspace as Eclipse projects. Only those dependencies with SCM information in their pom.xml's will be considered for materialization (IAM must know where a dependency's code is located to provide the apropriate information to Buckminster).
