Working on the project using Eclipse

Eclipse integration is pretty easy to get going:

1. go to where you have cloned Sysmon
2. Make sure Eclipse is not currently running
3. Run a build using maven: mvn - this will ensure that all dependencies have been downloaded
4. Run the maven Eclipse setup task: mvn eclipse:configure-workspace -Declipse.workspace=/path/to/your/workspace (depending on your maven version, you may need to specify the workspace as -Declipse-workspace=/path/to/your/workspace - consult your maven error messages to figure out which version to use)
5. Fire up Eclipse and confirm that the M2_REPO classpath variable is set properly:

Here's example output from running these commands. Note that the first time you run them, they may produce substantially more output as maven downloads its needed plugins and dependencies from the maven repos.
