Summary: Do not follow references outside a project
Key: UIMA-2958
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2958
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
Fix For: 2.4.1SDK
Rationale from UIMA-1176
{quote}
Our project reuses a common type system that we got from a different source.
The common type system descriptor is imported into our main type system
descriptor. The common type system has its own JCas types, in a jar file.
When we generate JCas types for our main type system descriptor, it currently
generates all of the classes for all of the imported type systems as well. We
don't want this behavior, so we have to manually go through and delete those
classes.
I think JCasGen should only generate types for the type system descriptor that
you run it on, not on imported type system descriptors.

One way to solve it as described in UIMA-2471

Jg.main0 takes an array of string arguments. To make JCasGen limit the cover
classes it generates to just those whose type definitions are contained in some
directory (at any sub directory level), you pass 2 additional arguments in this
array:
1) "-limitToDirectory" and then following that
2) the path to some directory. Currently this is typically set to a containing
Eclipse project directory, for example, when JCasGen is called from the
Component Descriptor Editor
