------------------------------------
"Best" depends on your usecase. The reason a Swiss Army knife has many tools in
it is that there are many tools needed for all life's eventualities.
Some people want a simple, single, aggregate site from which to install JBT, or to build
JBDS.
Some people want a larger, complex, composite site which includes the last N builds of
JBT, but which would be slower to use for the average user (way more metadata to read).
I build solutions. What you do with them is up to your specific needs. JBDS builds want
the /update/nightly/master; but some users may prefer to use /builds/nightly/master
because it's less likely to change suddenly while you're using it.
That said, I've changed the aggregate build jobs so that they ONLY re-publish content
when there's new upstream changes, like it USED to be before Mickael changed it to
ALWAYS publish.
So, as a result, we now see builds only when something changes, eg between two versions of

JBoss Tools Core Nightly update site fails to install if a new build
is published during install
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-17536
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17536
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta2
Reporter: Martin Malina
Assignee: Nick Boldt
Fix For: 4.2.x
When you install JBT nightly from
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/core/master/ into Eclipse and during
the build, a new nightly build replaces the old one, you can get a failure like this:
{code}http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/core/master/features/org.jboss.tools.wtp.runtimes.tomcat.feature_1.1.0.Beta3-v20140603-0027-B526.jar
cannot be found{code}
This is because during your install, the old jars were replaced with the new jars, i.e.
different filenames.
I'm not sure if it's something we really need to fix, it's open for
discussion. But it happened to me yesterday and it wasn't the first time, so I'm
throwing it on the table.
Nick offered this alternative:
install from a specific build folder instead of the "latest nightly"
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/nightly/core/master/2014-06-0...
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/nightly/core/master/2014-06-0...
But obviously that's just a workaround, not a real solution.
One way this could be achieved is this: plugins/ and features/ would contain jars from
both the latest and previous builds. This way if you start installing (latest=build N) and
in the middle of your installation there is a new build (N+1), there would still be jars
for both N and N+1 builds.
