Hi Shirley,

Can you create a new page and link it to the placeholder "Developing Jetty in Eclipse" in the section "Working with Eclipse". The contents (from a posting by Joakim on Stackoverflow here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8798059/how-can-i-import-jetty-source-code-into-eclipse/8804478#8804478):



You'll want to do the following ...

    Install the m2e plugin.
        [menu] Help > Eclipse Marketplace
        Search for "m2e"
        Install "Maven Integration for Eclipse"
    Checkout the source code for jetty somewhere onto your disk (or just unpack the source zip file)
    Import the maven projects
        [menu] File > Import
        [tree] Maven > Existing Maven Projects
        [Next button]
        Browse to the top folder of the jetty source tree.
        Hit Next / Finish to then import all of jetty into eclipse.
    Wait for Eclipse + M2E to settle down with its compilation and project setup.


This should also get linked onto the page Jetty/Contributor/Building at the bottom under the heading "Building with Eclipse".

thanks
Jan
