Eclipse Marketplace - Maven Integration

I am in Eclipse Indigo and trying to install Maven Support for eclipse. I search Eclipse Marketplace with "maven" and found there are two entries:

  • Maven Integration for Eclipse WTP.
  • Maven Integration for Eclipse.

Now I am confused to choose them.

I am developing web application. So what is the entry I should go for?

Install them both. The first is specifically designed to integrate with WTP, the second one is general Maven integration in Eclipse.

Have you tried to just use Maven? With Indigo, m2e is already integrated. If you look at eclipse.org, you will find there the following features integrated:

If you open the preferences in Eclipse (Windows > Preferences), you will find there the Maven configuration for Eclipse:

You have to configure there, where your Maven installation lives, and can start to use Maven inside Eclipse.
