ImageJ (fiji) compiling plugin

Question

I am developing a plugin for ImageJ (fiji), I followed this tutorial to configure fiji for eclipse.

http://fiji.sc/wiki/index.php/Developing_Fiji_in_Eclipse

Now I am working with the 3D ImageJ Suite and specifically the 3DRoiManager, but I cannot get the plugins to compile in Eclipse using the methodology described in the above tutorial.

Each plugin should have a pom.xml file, I think. Can anyone help me to make the 3DRoiManager run in imageJ from eclipse. Thank you

You do not need to actually load the Fiji source code into Eclipse (which is what the "Developing Fiji in Eclipse" article is about). Rather, you are trying to develop an external ImageJ plugin: the 3D RoiManager. I agree that it is convenient to create a Maven project for it, so that you can easily develop the project in Eclipse, pull in other dependencies, etc.

I suggest using this project as a starting point: https://github.com/imagej/minimal-ij1-plugin
