Re: [jbosstools-dev] Better place for JBoss Tools mylyn connections.

>>> I created a new plug-in to provide mylyn connections for issues.jboss.org and bugzila.redhat.com >>> See details in jira - https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-9351 >>> It's placed in common/plugins/org.jboss.tools.common.mylyn >>> We set two repositories in this plug-in. Firs one is Bugzilla and second one is JIRA. >>> The problem is that Bugzilla connector comes from Eclipse Mylyn plugins but JIRA connector comes from Atlassian update-site. >>> So we have to have Atlassian plugins installed to get JBoss JIRA repository working. >> hmm - I thought/hoped the setup would not have a hard coupling to atlassian plugin - but just optional dependency. >> >>> So there are two questions. What module/feature is better for our mylyn plug-in? Denis' suggestion is to move this plugin to central. >>> What do you think? >> My first thought was no since initially that would just solve the mylyn dependency issue, but then I rethought and it actually kinda make sense >> that central is the one setting up the jboss.org/fedora/redhat issue systems. >> >> But this doesn't solve the problem of requiring atlassian plugin to be installed. >> >> Can we do one of the following: >> >> A) make the atlassian installation optional - so I don't have to get mylyn tasks + jira plugins just to use central. >> >> B) make it a separate feature �which then unfortunately would need to be installed separately :( > According to latest changes in p2, if dependency is optional it is not installed by default unless it is marked as greedy, then it should be packed as separate feature and available for installation. where do you mark such as greedy/non-greedy ? > So A+B should just work. So you mean separate feature but dependency marked as non-greedy ? That sounds like a plan. /max http://about.me/maxandersen _______________________________________________ jbosstools-dev mailing list jbosstools-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jbosstools-dev
