Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration

[Randy Leonard]

I am just getting started with bnd, and have created a very simple first project using online examples for which the majority of the pom.xml file is given below.

Eclipse generates an error message with the following output:

Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration: biz.aQute.bnd:bnd-maven-plugin:2.4.1:bnd-process (execution: default, phase: process-classes)

Two other comments:

• There are no other files in the project, just the pom.xml file given below.
  
• I can run mvn clean install from the command line and the project successfully builds.

My question is why Eclipse generates the above error message on the pom.xml file given below, and what can be done to make Eclipse happy.

Thanks,

Randy

I think this is fixed for 3.0 by https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/commit/12105ceb70d3cf2ef10d2e16a90c36ffc0615668.

BJ is correct for 3.0

For 2.4.x you have 2 options:

1. set a global eclipse preference to execute bnd-process

2. add it to your pom.xml file itself.  

The maven plugin for Eclipse should provide a "quick fix" for performing either one of these actions, i.e. select the problem marker for the pom.xml, right -click > quick fix
