Re: [m2e-users] Speed improvements in 1.5 or 1.6?
It's probably easier to hack a Mars distro to make it display the Juno splashscreen

It's *probably* possible to hack m2e sources to make it work against juno, but that'd be a fork of your own, and it's also very possible you'd waste your time.

If you wanna try, follow the instructions from, 
https://www.eclipse.org/m2e/documentation/m2e-development-environment.html, after importing the sources in a Juno based SDK.
Then try to relax dependency constraints in some manifests, until the only errors you get are compilation errors. Then try to fix whatever breaks from there. Looking for file history in git might help rollback changes that broke Juno compat.

Good luck with that.

Exactly my issue.  I didn't know if that was something that could be reverse patched into a Juno installation, or if I had to make do with 1.5.1.  I had assumed that it was not doable, but thought I would double check just in case there was something that could be done.

Thanks,

Eric

Apparently no. m2e 1.6 requires a more recent core eclipse component. 
 Missing requirement: Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.6.2.20150902-0002 (org.eclipse.m2e.core 1.6.2.20150902-0002) requires 'bundle org.eclipse.osgi 3.10.0' but it could not be found

Is there any way to shoehorn m2e 1.6 into Juno?  I got 1.5 working in Juno with the help of the Orbit repository (Orbit-R20140525021250 - http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/R20140525021250/repository/) as mentioned on StackOverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/a/24659711/827480).

Any ideas if there is a similar workaround for 1.6?  Upgrading from Juno is unfortunately not an option.

Thanks,

Eric

Both releases saw some performance improvements :

Latest version should be the best m2e release ever, until next time.

I remember a long while back an email/release note on this list about speed improvements made in one of the versions of m2e (especially for large scale projects) after than 1.4.  However, I don't remember if it was 1.5 or 1.6 specifically.

Can anyone remember?  I've got a team using 1.4 on Juno and is complaining about the amount of time it takes to compile/package/etc.  If I push them onto 1.5 (I have managed to get 1.5 installed on Juno), will that cut down that amount of time, or was it 1.6 that had the more efficient algorithms?

Thanks,

Eric
