Eclipse Install MAVEN m2e-eclipse offline installation of M2E plug-ins and Eclipse.ini configuration-VM parameters

Because of the work requirement, I need to use Eclipse version 3.7.2 (Indigo) & maven 0.10.2

But the network condition are so poor to install this maven online. So I need to search a through to the install this offline.

1. Download All files from http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e/

Enter the folder of your required version, download 2 XML & all JAR files within features & plugins.< /c2>

Make a folder in the your PC named "m2e", put all these files to that folder. Don ' t change the folder structure.

Put the folder "M2E" directly into "Dropins" folder in your Eclipse directory.

2. Modify Eclipse.ini and ADD-VM param.

If You launch eclipse now, you'll see a warning-let's change your INI file.

Edit your Eclipse.ini file, add 2 lines Before-vmargs. For example, mine is:

--launcher.defaultaction
OpenFile
-vm
D:\Program Files (x86) \java\jdk1.7.0_17\bin
-vmargs
-xms40m
-xmx384m

After testing, whitespaces in the dir is allowed. Os:windows 7.
