[jira] Created: (UIMA-124) Maven Eclipse setup - missing javadoc /
src linkages for Eclipse files
Maven Eclipse setup - missing javadoc / src linkages for Eclipse files
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-124
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-124
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Priority: Minor
When doing developement, it is convenient to use the Eclipse features which show the Javadocs and/or source (when you click on F3). This is broken for the Maven - repository items. For instance, all the GUI classes/methods/fields for Eclipse have no attached source or documentation.

[jira] Commented: (UIMA-124) Maven Eclipse setup - missing javadoc

Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-124:
-------------------------------------
I'm not sure this is a maven software issue - they seem to support sources/javadocs (if available).
For instance, when I was installing a new project, I ran the command:
mvn eclipse:eclipse
to "set up" the project, and it went off looking for the dependencies in the "repository", and also gave a message to add the parameter "-DdownloadSources=true" and rerun. I reran, using
mvn -DdownloadSources=true eclipse:eclipse,
and this time, it tried to setup the sources. However, for a bunch of the Eclipse stuff, it said the sources were not available in the repository.
This might be a "licensing" issue since Apache isn't allowed to distribute EPL-licensed sources.
But perhaps there's a way to set up the repository locations to fix this.

--------------------------------------
I'd object to closing this issue - as the work-around doesn't really apply if you're working on a decent sized project with a team of others.
I'm aware that I _could_ spend time stitching the paths of source and javadoc into my eclipse project. However, this info is discarded next time I re-run 'maven eclipse'
Due to our development process, this happens quite often - whenever a team member does a new build of dependent projects, and bumps up the version numbers of jars in a project.properties in cvs.
Maven is great at fetching the latest versions of jars from the repository and updating my eclipse project with them - and maybe it can't be expected to magically locate sources and javadocs for these jars - but it'd be good if it preserved information that was already in the eclipse .classpath file

-------------------------------------
I recommend we close this issue. The work around is good enough for now. Maven may fix this in the future. Anyone object to my closing this? -Marshall

----------------------------------
I'm not sure there is anything that can be done on the UIMA side. Would you consider this to be a Maven issue, then?

Adam Lally commented on UIMA-124:
---------------------------------
This is because the shared Maven repository where we're getting our Eclipse jars from doesn't have source.
The workaround is to attach the source yourself by editing your Eclipse build path. For development, you can really do anything you want to the eclipse build path or other project settings. Just make sure in the end it compiles on the Maven command line.

----------------------------------
That's not what Noel was talking about. As I understand it, he wanted maven to preserve custom modifications he made to his .project/.classpath files (for things where the source/javadoc is not in the repository). I don't think that's supported by Maven, at least not that I know of (which isn't saying much).
