Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-513:
-------------------------------------
It works with the older Eclipse, it fails with newer ones. Need to replace
startup.jar with plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_xxxxxxxxxxx.jar, where
those xxxxxxxxx keep changing with different versions. So the scripts need
updating, perhaps in windows, using something like %~f1 to do file completion
on a partially specified file, that will fill in the right version. Have to
find a similar technique to make this work on *nix (suggestions welcome :-) )
> jcasgen_merge script fails with Eclipse 3.3 due to repackaging done by Eclipse

> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tools
> Affects Versions: 2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.3
> Reporter: Marshall Schor
> Priority: Minor
>
> jcasgen_merge script runs Eclipse in "headless" mode. The method of starting
> eclipse changed in Eclipse 3.3, and the previous method which depends on
> startup.jar doesn't work (there is no longer a startup.jar). See the Eclipse
> help topic "Incompatibilities between Eclipse 3.2 and 3.3". Workaround is to
> use Eclipse 3.2 for this operation.
