--------------------------------------
Re: merging uimaj-distr to top -level pom: I don't see any downside to doing
this.
Re: merging aggregate-uimaj to uimaj-distr: Downside: without a separate
aggregate-uimaj, there's no way to run mvn xxx on all of the projects without
also running it on uimaj-distr. uimaj-distr, because it builds the binary
distribution, runs multiple zip/tar packagings, and runs the multi-module
Javadoc creation, all of which take quite some time.
I think being able to build the modules without the binary assemblies is the
only reason to keep these separate.
We could do this another way, though, using "profiles" - we could put these
things into a profile, and have them enabled by default, and let users who
didn't want to run the assembly and user Javadocs, type an additional command
line parameter, something like -Duima.skip.bin.asm
Does this seem better than having another POM as we do now?
> UIMAJ build from the top level
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: UIMA-1967
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-1967
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build, Packaging and Test
> Affects Versions: 2.3.1
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor
>
> The uimaj 2.3.1 source release package is a bit misleading in that it places
> a copy of the uimaj/README file in the top level directory even though the
> advertised "mvn install" build command doesn't work from there.
> Instead of fixing that problem, it would seem like a good idea to actually
> move the uimaj/pom.xml and uimaj/README files directly to the top level
> directory in svn.
> As a potential further simplification, it seems to me like it would be
> possible to merge also the uimaj-distr/* and aggregate-uimaj/pom.xml files to
> the top level.
