The Problem
When learning Apache UIMA, I need to import it into eclipse. Also I need swtich between different UIMA version 2.4.2 and the latest(trunk) version frequently.
I can use maven-eclipse-plugin to import uima projects to eclipse. But I have to add a prefix to these uima projects.
The Solution
Check maven-eclipse-plugin, it provides several ways to change eclipse project name.
addGroupIdToProjectName
If set to true, the groupId of the artifact is appended to the name of the generated Eclipse project.
Expression: ${eclipse.addGroupIdToProjectName}
addVersionToProjectName
If set to true, the version number of the artifact is appended to the name of the generated Eclipse project. See projectNameTemplate for other options.
Expression: ${eclipse.addVersionToProjectName}
projectNameTemplate
Allows configuring the name of the eclipse projects. This property ifn set wins over addVersionToProjectName and addGroupIdToProjectName You can use [groupId], [artifactId] and [version] variables. eg. [groupId].[artifactId]-[version]
Expression: ${eclipse.projectNameTemplate}
So now the solution is obvious, we can add -Declipse.addVersionToProjectName=true
mvn -Declipse.addVersionToProjectName=true eclipse:eclipse
The project name would be updated as uimaj-core-2.4.2 or uimaj-core-2.5.1.
Or we can add -Declipse.projectNameTemplate=Prefix-[artifactId]-[version]
Miscs
Use -DdownloadSources=true to tell maven to download source code.
Resource
Maven Eclipse Plugin
