                 URL: http://jira.andromda.org/browse/UMLMETA-107
             Project: UML Metafacades
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 3.4
         Environment: Andromda 3.4-SNAPSHOT as of 8/11/10. XP64 and Vista64, 
JDK 6 patch 21. MagicDraw 16.8, RSM8 beta.
            Reporter: Bob Fields

             Fix For: 3.4


I have this working locally today, not yet committed. We need to find a 
permanent location for the org.eclipse.uml2 dependencies.

Currently EMF UML2 2.3 is supported in AndroMDA 3.4-SNAPSHOT. It's been three 
years since any UML2 artifacts have been updated in maven central. The latest 
versions of MagicDraw, Rational 8 beta, and Eclipse support UML2 v3.x, and the 
v3.1 EMF dependencies from Eclipse Helios (released 7/10) can load earlier UML2 
versions seamlessly. I have been trying to either sync the Eclipse artifacts 
with maven central, or get the Eclipse foundation to fix the way the P2 
artifacts are exposed as a maven repository at 
http://build.eclipse.org/helios/hybrid/final, see 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=312656. If I commit this update 
today, I am concerned that the Eclipse Helios maven repository is only 
temporary, and the artifacts cannot be synched to central because they lack 
source plus the proper metadata. Perhaps we can upload the UML2 artifacts to 
Sonatype ourselves? I'd really prefer to use the actual org.eclipse.uml2 
groupid instead of putting them all under org.andromda.thirdparty.

If I do commit this update without also updating the related artifacts, we 
would have to watch the helios maven repository closely to see if it goes away 
suddenly. I want to avoid errors like 
http://forum.andromda.org/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=6517.
