Hi all,<br>
<br>
After some investigations around <a
href="https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11726">JBIDE-11726</a>
(Create target platforms for developer), we have arrived to an
interesting result by having <a
href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=378987">378987</a>
and<b> </b><a id="key-val" rel="12467362"
href="https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12003">JBIDE-12003</a>
fixed, so that target platform should be much more stable (CI job
only publish them after validating they can successfully be
resolved) and having make progress about <a
href="https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11689">JBIDE-11689</a>,
by using "includeSource" flag on target-platforms.<br>
<br>
So if you want to be less surprised by dependencies-related issue,
here is a way to make your IDE use an equivalent target as the one
used by build, without loosing ability to view source:<br>
1. Checkout the build/target-platform folder in your workspace<br>
2. Open <b>multiple.target</b> using the target editor<br>
3. Ckick on "<b>Set as Target"</b> on the upper-right corner<br>
<br>
Then, PDE will rely on this target definition to resolve
dependencies (from Eclipse, Atlassian, SpringSource and other
3rd-party deps we have).<br>
In order to resolve other JBoss Tools stuff, you may want to
complete it with entries from our development update-sites to
resolve other modules if you need, but please don't commit anything
to this TP before opening a ticket to the target-platform component.<br>
<br>
Your feedback is welcome on JBIDE-11726.<br>
