Liferay development in Eclipse

Question

I've seen that most of the documentation in the Liferay Wiki (concerning Eclipse plugins and the like) refers to Liferay version 4.x. Are there up-to-date resources for developing Liferay portlets with eclipse (3.5)?

Answer 1

Found one here that looks promising:

http://www.jroller.com/holy/entry/developing_portlets_for_liferay_in

Answer 2

We are starting to use this as a reference. It seems pretty good to get going.

http://www.amazon.com/Liferay-Portal-5-2-Systems-Development/dp/1847194702/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1266607717&sr=8-1

The other thing to look at are the two (at least I found) Maven plug ins for Eclipse/Liferay.

One comes from Liferay and the other a community.

github.com/azzazzel/liferay-maven-sdk and this is a good ref of it github.com/azzazzel/liferay-maven-sdk

Then..from Liferay. www.liferay.com/web/mika.koivisto/blog/-/blogs/liferay-maven-sdk

Both are good and help with the busting out of project archetypes for Liferay.
