What Eclipse version does our tooling work with?
Maybe it's just me, but I tried to install the latest
downloadable version of our tooling in Eclipse 3.7
and 3.6, and had no luck. In 3.7, nothing at all
works. In 3.6, I can add the UIMA nature to projects,
but I can't start the CDE. I can create a CAS Editor
project, but it doesn't have the right icon, and I see
none of the things I should be seeing.
This is on Ubuntu, in case that makes a difference.
I really just want to run the CAS Editor. What's my
best option? Should I downgrade Eclipse to some ancient
level and use the download version? If I build from
source, will it work in a recent version of Eclipse?
Thanks for any help.

Yes, thank you. I had a build failure in uimaj-ep-launcher, but
apparently nothing depends on it and I was able to carry on with
the rest.

Oh well, no matter. Now I have the latest and greatest,
which is the preferred option anyway ;-) Thanks for
looking into this.

For me it just works. I used a fresh eclipse 3.7 (on ubuntu 32 Bit), the
update site to install
the UIMA 2.3.1 tools, after that was done I quickly tested the Cas Editor.
After the tools have been installed, eclipse suggested to restart which
I did.

Ok, I will try to reproduce this problem. Did you succeed with the Cas
Editor?

This was into a clean eclipse. Here's the log for the attempt when I tried to
install from the update site. Maybe just an incomplete download. However,
downloading the distribution and copying the plugin jars into the dropins folder
didn't work either.

3.6.2 (windows) and 3.7 (Linux) both work for me.
I'm running with 3.6.2, with the UIMA plugins from 2.3.1 version, and I can
start the CDE (on windows).
I've also now just tested 3.7 with the uima plugins from 2.3.1 version, and made
a new Java project, and added a new UIMA analysis engine descriptor - which
opened up fine in the CDE.
Both installed from www.apache.org/dist/uima/eclipse-update-site.
Perhaps there's some interaction with other plugins happening?
For instance - we had an "install" failure for uima plugins (and other plugins)
after installing RTC 3.0 iFix1 from a p2 repository zip. After the RTC plugins
were installed, attempts to install UIMA and other plugins failed with strange
error messages. We found a patch that goes against the p2 repository for RTC
plugins, which enabled us to get around this. For details, see

As far as I know there are no Cas Editor issues which are linked to
eclipse 3.6 or 3.7,
but there are a couple of bugs in the 2.3.1 version of the Cas Editor,
which really shouldn't be there:
- The document import wizard doesn't work correctly
- And a bug was fixed where saving a CAS could fail
- The shift + enter annotate action could fail when there are many types
in the ts
I suggest that you use the trunk version. A coworker of mine just started
to use it yesterday to annotate a couple of texts and we already identified
a few more bugs and smaller issues which I will fix in the coming days.
To use the head version, you should build it with maven and
then simply copy over the runtime, caseditor and caseditor.ide jar
files into you eclipse dropins folder.
After that is done you likely need to start eclipse with the -clean flag.
I tested that yesterday and noticed that this does not work when the
2.3.1 plugins
are still installed. We removed them via the eclipse about dialog and
then restarted with the
clean flag and everything was fine.
Also make sure to switch to the Cas Editor Perspective and to set a type
system.
To set a type system go into the projects property dialog and then to
the UIMA Type System tab.
Its defaulting to TypeSystem.xml at the root of your project.
Any comments, suggestions, or bug reports are very welcome.
Hope this helps,
Jörn
