Sorry, I won't be able to work on this issue at least for one week
(health reasons). It has to wait or you could temporarly reassign it.

Steven Bethard commented on UIMA-2475:
--------------------------------------
Well, for the old releases to be valid p2 repositories, yeah, you'd have to
supply the plugins. But I personally think it would be fine if you just made p2
repositories for the newest versions. I certainly didn't need any of the old
ones.
As to the issue with the published update site, I wonder if you could:
(1) Check the current published update site into SVN, say in a 'deploy/legacy'
directory. If possible, run FeaturesAndBundlesPublisher over this. (Though it
might not help much since it sounds like plugins were not properly deployed in
the past.)
(2) Use the process I described above to publish new plugins and features,
adjusting the -metadataRepository and -artifactRepository paths to
'deploy/2.4.0-whatever'
(3) Update 'deploy/compositeContent.xml' and 'deploy/compositeArtifacts.xml' to
make sure they include all the sub-directories ('legacy', '2.4.0-whatever',
etc.)
(4) Just copy over the entire 'deploy' directory as the published update site.
Would that work?
eclipse p2 update site instead of old-style update site

Key: UIMA-2475
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2475
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Eclipse plugins
Reporter: Steven Bethard
Assignee: Peter Klügl
Attachments: uimaj-eclipse-update-site.zip
The UIMA Eclipse update site (www.apache.org/dist/uima/eclipse-update-site) is
an Eclipse 3.3 (or older) update site. Since Eclipse 3.4, the recommended
update site layout is p2:

I've been bitten by this update site issue because old-style update sites make
it impossible to resolve build-time dependencies when building Eclipse plugins:

Could the UIMA update site be modernized to the p2 layout?
