Use this maven project (maven build with a test target) to take a UIMA subsite and "slice off" just the latest version of the feature groups. Source: the original in dist.apache.org's svn for release of a UIMA Eclipse plugin subsite. Destination: this project's target/eclipse-update-site/ Subsites are for - UIMAJ SDK uimaj, and uimaj-v3-pre-production - RUTA ruta - UIMA-AS uima-as The slicing operation needs to regenerate the gpg signatures, so it will ask for your signing key. This is only done if you include the apache-release profile. How to run ---------- 1) update the subsiteSlicing.xml to specify the slicing details - names of the features, expressed as installable unit names - you need to format these like the example there ending in .feature.group. -- without version numbers - this means select the most recent -- with version numbers - this means select those version(s) - names of the categories with the version number specified 2) mvn test -Dsubsite=xxxxx -Papache-release - change property subsite to "uimaj", "ruta", "uimaj-v3-pre-production", etc.
