Hi all,
After some investigations around JBIDE-11726
<
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11726> (Create target platforms
for developer), we have arrived to an interesting result by having
378987 <
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=378987>
and**JBIDE-12003 <
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12003> 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 JBIDE-11689
<
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11689>, by using "includeSource"
flag on target-platforms.
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:
1. Checkout the build/target-platform folder in your workspace
2. Open *multiple.target* using the target editor
3. Ckick on "*Set as Target"* on the upper-right corner
Then, PDE will rely on this target definition to resolve dependencies
(from Eclipse, Atlassian, SpringSource and other 3rd-party deps we have).
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.
Your feedback is welcome on JBIDE-11726.
