Target Platform 4.40.0.Beta4 for JBoss Tools 4.2.0.Beta3 has been released

Changes
=======

Here is the list of changes since 4.40.0.Beta3 release: https://issues.jboss.org/issues/?jql=project%3DJBIDE%20and%20component%3Dtarget-platform%20and%20fixVersion%3D4.2.0.Beta3

Usage
=====

Target platform 4.40.0.Beta4 is what JBoss Tools 4.2.0.Beta3 should have used, and what it will use for next builds and respins.

All Jenkins jobs for branch jbosstools-4.2.0.Beta3x and parent pom 4.2.0.Beta3-SNAPSHOT have been updated to use target platform 4.40.0.Beta4.

The following p2 repositories *will be modified* to point to this new target platform once JBoss Tools 4.2.0.Beta3 is released:
* http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/luna/
* http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbdevstudiotarget/luna/

Until then, you can access the target platform at the URLs below.

Testing/Development
===================

If your root pom correctly specifies the latest parent pom version as 4.2.0.Beta3-SNAPSHOT, you need only this:
   $ mvn clean verify

If you're using a different parent pom, use this:
   $ mvn clean verify -Dtpc.version=${TARGET_PLATFORM_VERSION}
