migrating Vaadin project to maven vadin project

Hi,
I have developed a project using Vaadin in eclipse (using Ivy as dependency manager) and exporting as war file. Now I have realized that it would be better to have it as a maven project so I could use easly automatic builds etc.
Is there a way I could do it? The onlytutorials I can see concerns starting Vaadin maven project from the begining?
Thanks
Julian

Hi,

I would suggest just creating a new Maven project from the beginning and adding your existing sources to the new project. If you have external dependencies, add them to the new pom.xml. This might seem like extra work, but it's a safer bet than trying to convert an existing project and running into weird problems.

Hope this helps,
Olli
