NetBeans 6.7 and newer has in-built support for Maven. In case of previous version, Maven plugin is available in plugin Manager. We are using NetBeans 6.9 in this example.
Some of features of NetBeans are listed below −
• You can run Maven goals from NetBeans.
• You can view the output of Maven commands inside the NetBeans using its own console.
• You can update maven dependencies with IDE.
• You can Launch Maven builds from within NetBeans.
• NetBeans does the dependency management automatically based on Maven’s pom.xml.
• NetBeans resolves Maven dependencies from its workspace without installing to local Maven repository (requires dependency project be in equivalent workspace).
• NetBeans automatic downloads required dependencies and sources from the remote Maven repositories.
• NetBeans provides wizards for creating new Maven projects, pom.xml.
• NetBeans provides a Maven Repository browser that enables you to view your local repository and registered external Maven repositories.
Subsequent example will help you to leverage benefits of integrating NetBeans and Maven.

Open a maven project in NetBeans

• Open NetBeans.
• Select File Menu > Open Project option.
• Select Project location, where a project was created using Maven. We’ve created a Java Project consumerBanking. Go to ‘Creating Java Project’ chapter, to see how to create a project using Maven.

Now, you can see the maven project in NetBeans. Have a look at consumerBanking project Libraries and Test Libraries. You can see that NetBeans has added Maven dependencies to its build path.

Build a maven project in NetBeans

Now, Its time to build this project using maven capability of NetBeans.
• Right Click on consumerBanking project to open context menu.
• Select Clean and Build as option.

Maven will start building the project. You can see the output in NetBeans Console as follows −
