The downside of using JDT APT is, there's no separation between main and test classes (the way maven-processor-plugin handles them). To mitigate that limitation, you can change the workspace or project preferences to delegate annotation processing to maven, instead of JDT APT (Note this only works when using maven-processor-plugin). This will result in slower incremental builds (all classes will be processed) but will provide identical results to maven command line builds. <br/><br/>Automatic Annotation Processing configuration from the maven pom.xml can also be disabled altogether. In this case, your manual settings for Eclipse JDT APT will remain untouched. <br/><br/>Go to Window &gt; Preferences &gt; Maven &gt; Annotation processing or right-click on your project &gt; Properties &gt; Maven &gt; Annotation processing ! to select the Annotation Processing strategy of your choice. + </p> + <img src="../images/m2e-apt-prefs.png" /> + + <small> See <a href="https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-8208">JBIDE-8208... for more details. </small></p> </td>
