Re: [jbosstools-dev] JBT/JBDS Target Platform for Beta1 -- time to update?

It looks like we really need two target platforms. Minimal based on sr1 to compile against and maximal to run with. Maximal also can be used to assemble JBDS. I remember Max already raised this issue earlier, didn't he? Denis Rob Cernich<rcernich(a)redhat.com> wrote: >> It is all about right version range in manifest.

Developers should be actively selecting the dependency version. It also helps to do a little research to see when a specific feature became available, as this may allow for backward compatibility (e.g. the SwitchYard plugins are fully compatible, although untested, with Eclipse JEE 3.6). > > It's probably too much to ask for existing dependencies, but as new dependencies are added, developers should actively select the version required.
