Steven Bethard updated CTAKES-65:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: ctakes-jcasgen-maven-plugin.diff

I think the solution is to create a real jcasgen-maven-plugin and a proper m2e 
connector that only runs JCasGen when the type system has changed (or on 
project import, or if target/generated-sources/jcasgen is missing, etc.). 
Here's the instructions to try this out:

(1) Apply the patch to cTAKES trunk, which uses the jcasgen-maven-plugin in the 
pom.xml files instead of the exec-maven-plugin and build-helper-maven-plugin:
   $ svn patch ctakes-jcasgen-maven-plugin.diff

(2) Open Eclipse, and refresh your cTAKES checkout. You should see a bunch of 
errors in the Problems view that look like "Project configuration is not 
up-to-date with pom.xml. Run Maven->Update Project or use Quick Fix." 

(3) Update the Maven projects as suggested.

(4) You should now see some new errors that look like: "Plugin execution not 
covered by lifecycle configuration: 
org.cleartk:jcasgen-maven-plugin:0.9.0:generate (execution: default, phase: 
generate-sources)"

(5) Install the m2e connector for the jcasgen-maven-plugin. Go to Help -> 
Install New Software…, add the update site 
http://cleartk.googlecode.com/git/jcasgen-m2e-connector/org.cleartk.plugin.jcasgen.m2e.repo/target/repository/
 and install the "m2e connector for JCasGen Maven plugin". Eclipse will restart.

(6) Update the Maven projects again, as in step (3). The errors should all be 
gone now.

Some things to try to make sure the fix worked:

(1) Check that  JCasGen is no longer be constantly running in the background. 
Go to the Progress view and make sure that eventually you see just "No 
operations to display at this time."

(2) Modify a few non-type-system files and and make sure (in the Progress view 
again) that JCasGen does not run.

(3) Modify a type system, and make sure that JCasGen *does* run. An easy way to 
check this is to change an annotation or feature name and make sure you got 
some new compile errors.

> I have Eclipse set to "Build Automatically" and I'm constantly seeing tasks 
> running in the background in my Progress view that look like:
> Compiling ctakes-type-system/target/generated-sources/...
> Refreshing ctakes-type-system/target/generated-sources/...
> These tasks run, complete and then immediately start again, and as a result, 
> my Eclipse runs very slowly.
