Get source jar files attached to Eclipse for Maven-managed dependencies

by

I am sure m2eclipse Maven plugin for Eclipse – the other way around – can do that. You can configure it to download both the source files and javadoc automatically for you.

This is achieved by going into Window > Preferences > Maven and checking the "Download Artifact Sources" and "Download Artifact JavaDoc" options.
