[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBRULES-2533) Update Eclipse Compiler dependency

Update Eclipse Compiler dependency ---------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-2533 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2533 Project: Drools Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: drools-compiler Affects Versions: 5.1.0.M2 Reporter: Fabian Lange Assignee: Mark Proctor drools-compiler pom includes a reference to eclipse JDT. in 5.0.1 this was a 4 MB core_whatever.jar Because I wanted to improve compiler performance I tried out a never eclipse compiler package. Finding it was not very easy, because eclipse seems to change group and artifact ids every day. I found a module which only contains the compiler part from eclipse 3.5.1, which works in all my tests ok. Another nice benefit was that the size of my war shrunk by 3 Megabytes, as this module is only 1.7 megs. It even helped for performance of compilation process by the way. Not that this is a main bottleneck, but we have files that take seconds to compile. My tests on my windows box with java 6 gave 5-10% improvement using the 3.5.1 jdt compiler.
