If you find some issue with JBoss Developer Studio and you don't know if it is a bug
then post it on this
http://jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=116253&s... and we
will let you know.
If you are told it is a bug or missing feature then we would like you to report it in our
jira.
The JBoss Tools jira is for anything related to the functionallity provided by JBoss
Tools:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBIDE
The JBDS specific one is for issues related to the installer, branding and any 3rd party
bundles we include:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/RHDS
If in doubt then put an issue in JBoss Tools JIRA and we will move it if necessary.

*Q : Our current JBoss corporate standard is 4.0.5. Is it possible to use RHDS with JBoss
4.0.5 instead of Jboss 4.2?*
*A* : RHDS is bundled with JBoss EAP 4.2 which includes Seam 1.2.1.EAP. (which is
basically Seam 1.2.1.GA plus changes needed to make it run on JBoss 4.2)
And to use another Seam just use another home directory - we just don't guarantee
anything anymore (report issues in jira if you find something that is broken you think
should be working)
*Q : I already have a working Eclipse 3.3 & JBoss AS 4.2.1 Installation so I would
like to additionally install JBDS from an update site so I don't have to bother with
it and get the newest release whenever I want. But where is that update site?*
*A* : We don't yet have an update site for JBoss Developer Studio. This is because we
are doing a lot of work to test and certify the integration between the tools and the
bundled JBoss Enterprise Application Platform. When we update JBoss Developer Studio, we
will be updating both the runtime bits and the associated tooling at the same time in
order to provide a quality development environment. Unfortunately, an Eclipse Update site
doesn't allow for this kind of update.
*Q : Can I use Seam 2 instead of the bundled one?*
*A* : Read
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=116885.
*Q : I'm evaluating JBoss Developer Studio for a project, and I'm trying to figure
out the relationship it has with Eclipse. Does it replace Eclipse?*
*A* : The additional "feature" of JBoss is that it bundles JBoss EAP 4.2 and
Seam 1.2 EAP preconfigured and ready to work out-of-the-box with an Eclipse 3.3/WTP 2.0 +
selected JBoss Tools plugins.
