Jochen Wiedmann commented on RAT-379:
-------------------------------------
Okay, the point seems to be to copy the file RELEASE_NOTES.txt from the parent
project to the created jar files as META-INF/RELEASE_NOTES.txt. In other words,
we can remove those snippets, if we achieve that point in a different manner.
Suggestion:
# In apache-rat-core, use a small Ant, or Groovy script to copy that file from
the parent project as part of the "generate-resources" phase.
# In apache-rat-plugin, apache-rat-tasks, and apache-rat-tools, use the
maven-dependency-plugin to import the copied file from apache-rat-core. (They
all have a dependency on that, anyways.)
Possible drawback: apache-rat-core might loose the ability to be buildable
standalone, because it now requires the presence of ../RELEASE_NOTES.txt. To
me, that's alright, I am cloning the whole project, not just the core. But
others might have different
needs. Thoughts?

> I'm unable to open the current master branch in Eclipse anymore. I suspect it
> to be related to the spotbugs/checkstyle integration via RAT-369 or the
> latest changes that introduced defined dependencies on RAT submodule itself
> .... but have to admit that I did not open the project in Eclipse for quite
> some time.
> The error message is "Path must include project or resource name: /" and the
> project is not properly imported.
> Does anyone else experience this behaviour?
> * Eclipse 2024-03 with all updates integrated on Ubuntu
> * JDK is the internal one provided by Eclipse itself (17.0.10)
