LEXINGTON, Mass. (Business Wire EON) May 6, 2008 -- Coincident with JavaOne 2008, AccuRev Inc. announced the release of its process-centric software configuration management (SCM) plug-in for m2eclipse, the popular Maven plug-in for the Eclipse development environment. Maven is a Java project management and build automation tool used for building and managing any Java-based project to make the day-to-day work of Java developers easier and provide build and project management for any Java-based project.

AccuRev's innovative SCM tool is an excellent addition to the Eclipse ecosystem. We look forward to AccuRev's support of the m2eclipse project.

This new integration will provide m2eclipse users with the ability to retrieve and build Maven projects that are stored in AccuRev. From within Eclipse, an M2 user can 'Import' Maven projects from AccuRev into their Eclipse environment and then use standard Maven operations to build the project.

Jason van Zyl, CTO & Founder, Sonatype and Apache Maven Founder, said, “I am pleased to have AccuRev join our m2eclipse interested parties list and make its SCM solution available to Maven users.”

Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation, Inc., said, “AccuRev’s innovative SCM tool is an excellent addition to the Eclipse ecosystem. We look forward to AccuRev’s support of the m2eclipse project.”

Damon Poole, CTO of AccuRev, said, “Our customers work to optimize their software development processes, and see build as an important component of process automation. Java, Eclipse, Maven and AccuRev are a powerful combination for process and management. AccuRev’s tight integration into Eclipse provided a foundation for improved productivity from our Java customers. Our new Maven integration will bring the same kind of value to the owners of each organization’s development process.”

Availability

AccuRev will make the source code for its Maven-SCM plug-in available to maven.apache.org in Q2 so developers and other interested parties may benefit from this open source contribution.
