A plugin to create a project file to be used by JDEE (Java Development Enviroment for Emacs) to make it a little easier for Emacs users to switch to maven.

The most important part is the initialization of jde-global-classpath variable. The generated project file has this variable set to contain all dependencies (normally jarfiles) as listed in the project descriptor.

The following table can give you an overview about the mapping between Maven properties and JDEE variables:

Maven property/ constant value	JDEE variable
pom.artifactId	jde-project-name
maven.jdee.project.file (see Properties for details)	jde-project-file-name
pom.build.sourceDirectory	jde-sourcepath
./target/classes	jde-compile-option-directory
target.classes.*	jde-import-excluded-packages Prevent the generated class files from being included into the list of possible imports.
./target/docs/apidocs	jde-javadoc-gen-destination-directory
${pom.name} - ${pom.organization} (${pom.inceptionYear})	jde-javadoc-gen-window-title

For more information on the functionality provided by this plugin, please see the Goals document.

This plugin is flexible by providing configurable properties see the properties for details.
