The old way - if you asked to update JBDS Core Features (BYOE) you would be forced to
update the Branded Product feature too:
!update-BYOE-without-updating-product_710cr1-ga-could-not-be-done-without-also-updating-product.png!
Now, with a change like this in site/*.p2.inf (for JBDS 8.0.0.Alpha1)...
{code:title=site/com.jboss.jbds.p2.inf}
# JBDS-2874 this allows us to update a JBDS product via BYOE feature w/o updating the
product (package definition) itself
requires.1.namespace = org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu
requires.1.name = com.jboss.jbds.product.feature.feature.group
requires.1.range = [8.0.0, 9.0.0)
{code}
we get this:
*Help > About > Installation Details > Installation History BEFORE UPDATE*
!update-BYOE-without-updating-product_BEFORE.png!
*Help > About > Installation Details > Installation History AFTER UPDATE*
!update-BYOE-without-updating-product_result.png!
For JBDS 8.0.0.Alpha2, the code is slightly different due to refactorings done in
JBDS-2669:
{code:title=site/com.jboss.devstudio.core.p2.inf}
# JBDS-2874 this allows us to update a JBDS product via BYOE feature w/o updating the
product (package definition) itself
requires.1.namespace = org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu

I've found a way to make it possible to update JBDS contents (eg., the Core Features)
without having to update the product too. This makes the JBDS-in-Eclipse and
JBDS-via-installer experience the same in terms of being able to update piecemeal - you
can now update Eclipse / product OR the JBDS features, or both.
Do we want this? I'll attach a PR showing how it's possible to make this happen.
