title: Fortify scanning in Eclipse over maven projects
body: <p>I have the Eclipse plugin for Fortify.
  But it only runs on the Java projects.</p>
  
  <p>We have some Java projects but they are Maven based non-Java projects. I can edit the <code>.project</code> file of the projects and change their type to Java to enable Fortify scanning.
  But is there a better way to run Fortify scans on Maven based projects?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong> Had to do following steps as mentioned in some of the posts below</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Install the Maven Fortify plugin</li>
  <li>Added Maven fortify Plugin details in my application pom</li>
  <li>Ran translate and scan commands. It generated fpr files under the projects</li>
  <li>Follow this helpful blog too <a href="http://fortify-maven.blogspot.in/" rel="nofollow">http://fortify-maven.blogspot.in/</a></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>The only Question which I still have is:</p>
  
  <p>I have multiple projects where an fpr file for each project is created. Can I have a consolidated fpr file being created for all the projects in one place?</p>
  
  <p>Cheers,
