Running UIMA 2.8.1 in Eclipse Mars - Component Descriptor Editor not available

Hi, 

Well, as the subject says, I am having issues with the current release version 2.8.1 and Eclipse Mars. When I try to open an existing type system description (XML file) with the Component Descriptor Editor, this is not possible, because the editor is not recognized. I have dropped the org.apache.uima.desceditor_2.8.1.jar into the Eclipse plugin directory, restarted Eclipse with the „-clean“ option and, AFAIK, this is all that should be necessary for installation. But the editor is not even showing up in the list of internal editors with which I could open the XML file. 

Anyone using the Component Descriptor Editor under Eclipse Mars successfully? Is there any special installation procedure? 

Cheers, 

Martin

Hi Marshall, 

I should have said that I also included the other plugin jars. But I copied them manually, not using the Update site. 

I have now installed the Eclipse tools via the update site and this has worked. I can see the Component descriptor editor again. 
Thanks a lot. 

Cheers, 

Martin

Hi,

THe editor depends on other Eclipse UIMA plugins - that's why just dropping it
in by itself isn't working.

Can you try installing (into a new MARS unzip) the 2.8.1 Eclipse tools from 
http://www.apache.org/dist/uima/eclipse-update-site?
