Rat complains about eclipse .metadata folder?
Hi all,
to work on UIMA with eclipse I just created a workspace
in the uimaj/trunk folder.
For that eclipse creates a .metadata folder which makes the
rat plugin cry about missing license headers.
Is it suggest to have a separate folder for the workspace?
Or should I add the .metadata folder to the rat exclude list?

When I work on UIMA with eclipse, I check out SVN into some dir, e.g.
svncheckouts/trunk/uimaj
Then I start up Eclipse, assign it some new workspace, wksp (separate from my
svn checkouts), and then using "m2e", I use import existing maven projects.
This imports the projects (without copying them into the Eclipse workspace).
That keeps the eclipse metadata completely separate from the svn / maven stuff.

I usually check out projects into sub-directories of the workspace. That is, the .metadata folder is parallel to the project folder, not in it, and rat does not complain.
The m2e subclipse integration offers a "checkout as maven project" option in the svn repo explorer which nicely takes care of checking out and importing Maven projects.
