Description

I am using sbt to build an OSGi bundle. When I run sbteclipse, it creates the project for me with all of the dependencies, but I have to add the Plug-in nature myself. The documentation does not specify a way to include this in the configuration of the Eclipse project using sbt so that it can be added automatically.

Research direction

The issue concerns sbteclipse configuration for generated Eclipse projects; start by reading the plugin's project-generation entry point and existing configuration documentation. Done means an sbt setting can automatically add org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature when creating an OSGi bundle project, with the usage documented.
