Maven generate-sources

I'm new to Maven integration on eclipse. I usually use the command "mvn process-sources" to generate-sources using the command line for something like this:

`<execution>
    <id>copy-was-dependencies</id>
    <phase>process-sources</phase>
    <goals>
       <goal>copy-dependencies</goal> 
    </goals>
    <configuration>
       <includeScope>provided</includeScope>
       <outputDirectory>src/main/resources/was</outputDirectory>
    </configuration>
</execution>`

When I right-click the pom.xml, there is no process-sources in the "Run As" option. How can I configure one to use process-sources instead of generate-sources?

If your generated sources are done exclusively via java annotation procsssors then you can use m2e-apt eclipse plugin which operates on-the-fly and you do not need to do anything. Otherwise you're stuck with a Maven launch configuration as other answers have pointed out.

You have to create a Run Configuration for Maven, with process-sources as goal.
Right-click on your project, Run As, Run Configurations...

Run Configurations...

Maven process-sources
