Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-124:
-------------------------------------
I'm not sure this is a maven software issue - they seem to support
sources/javadocs (if available).
For instance, when I was installing a new project, I ran the command:
mvn eclipse:eclipse
to "set up" the project, and it went off looking for the dependencies in the
"repository", and also gave a message to add the parameter
"-DdownloadSources=true" and rerun. I reran, using
mvn -DdownloadSources=true eclipse:eclipse,
and this time, it tried to setup the sources. However, for a bunch of the
Eclipse stuff, it said the sources were not available in the repository.
This might be a "licensing" issue since Apache isn't allowed to distribute
EPL-licensed sources.
But perhaps there's a way to set up the repository locations to fix this.

> When doing developement, it is convenient to use the Eclipse features which

> the Maven - repository items. For instance, all the GUI
> classes/methods/fields for Eclipse have no attached source or documentation.
