Improve diff dialog to move a specific starter dependency

Open manueljordan opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

For a Spring Boot project created through https://start.spring.io, with some starter dependencies and based with Maven .

And of course, imported into the IDE:

  • File -> Import -> Maven - > Existing Maven Projects

And taking then the scenario when later is need it to add another starter dependencies, therefore is possible do:

  • Select the pom.xml file -> Right Click -> Spring -> Add Starters

The current situation and reason of this post

  • Is not possible define a custom location of the new starter - it either prior or after - to be added in the pom.xml.

For example between 2 specific starters or either at the top or bottom of the pom.xml file. The current approach is do the updates and later open manually the pom.xml and apply the custom locations

Thanks for your understanding

Pls, consider to expand this request for the following scenario:

if from the beginning are not added some starter dependencies but is required move explicitly one directly.

I mean, is created a starter project with 10 dependencies ... passes some time and is need move 1 of them to other location among the rest.
