How I can I get the ManageProjectManager instance?
How can I get the MavenProjectsManager instance?
1. Is there a service, component or something else that goes in the plugin.xml to instantiate the MavenProjectsManager instance?
MavenProjectsManager manager = MavenProjectsManager.getInstance(project);
My plugin.xml file so far:
<idea-plugin version="2">
<id>com.arcbees.plugin.idea</id>
<name>GWT-Platform (GWTP) IntelliJ IDEA Plugin</name>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<vendor email="support@arcbees.com" url="http://www.arcbees.com">ArcBees</vendor>

Thanks to all those who can help,

Please make sure that you're adding the jars of the Maven plugin to the classpath of the IntelliJ IDEA SDK and not as a separate project library.
Thank you! I had mistunderstood the depenedency locaitons for including a thirdparty plugin. It works now.

For those who follow, I attatched a screen shot of the location I added the maven plugin dependencies. On a mac they are located in the application, /Applications/IntelliJ IDEA 12.app (show package contents).
I've run into a similar problem
I'm writing a plugin using IntelliJ SDK via the gradle-intellij-plugin.
I was able to add the dependencies so far, but now that I'm trying to add Maven/Gradle dependencies they are not seen by the IDE.
I then found this post and added the jars to the SDK's classpath, but still nothing changed.
Any hint?
Ok, got it. If I use the gradle plugin I must do
intellij {
version = '20xx.x.x'
plugins 'Maven', 'gradle'
}
Ok, the previous resolves the depends tag in the plugin.xml
However, I still cannot import classes. E.g.
