I could try. Currently I shy away from Eclipse plugin development because of the turn-around times of building and running the application for testing. Maybe you can give me a tip on how to achieve short turn-around times on Eclipse plugin projects using m2eclipse?
Hmm, not sure why the turn-around time is high in your case. You need to do a little initial setup like getting the source code, install maven, etc. But I guess you already did all that. You also need to download and install eclipse. When you are done with that I simply go to the uimaj folder and type mvn eclipse:eclipse which prepares the project to be opened in eclipse. After that is done you can run the Cas Editor from eclipse and change the source code. The turn-around time from a code change to testing is actually just the time you need to restart the testing eclipse instance, which is in my case a few seconds. Jörn
