-------------------------------
Hi Marshall,
(Sorry, might be the wrong JIRA to add comment)
My understanding is that the manifest.mf of each plug-in is "generated" by
maven.
The following is some observations after I try to create a new Eclipse
workspace to work with Apache UIMA.
- Each line of the manifest.mf file has a max 70 chars
- Each package in the "Export -Package" section contains a "uses" directive
and some lines are "very long" (more than 500 chars) which cause an error ("the
line is too long") in Manifest editor.
Is it the expected behavior ?
If I need to edit the manifest.mf file, how to do that ? Edit pom.xml or edit
manifest.mf as usual ?
The "the line is too long" error may prevent user to edit manidest.mf.

> Key: UIMA-816
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-816
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build, Packaging and Test
> Reporter: Marshall Schor
> Assignee: Marshall Schor
> Fix For: 2.2.2
>
>
> The current Eclipse plugins have complex maven poms - simplify by factoring
> out common things to a common super pom for the eclipse plugins, which will,
> in turn, inherit from the uimaj super pom.
> Put this new pom in the uimaj project - no need for another project just for
> this.
> Add configuration info so the eclipse:eclipse plugin does the right class
> path setup even when it is run from the top level. This will allow cd to the
> uimaj project, and running eclipse:eclipse there, and having it work, as well
> as working in individual project directories.
> For POMs which inherit from our project poms, replace the <groupId> with a
> comment saying it is inherited from the super pom, and replace the <version>
> with a comment saying it's inherited from the super pom.
> Make the eclipse plugin super pom have the right form of the version (the one
> with the "." instead of the "-" in front of the "incubator" token).
