[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-10803) Installation of central only installs part of astools, servers cannot start

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-10803?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-10803: --------------------------------------- {quote} It would seem to me that examples and central need to decide if they want their users to get a full installation of astools, or the bare minimum needed for compilation, or, some subset they manually declare as dependencies. {quote} That would solve the problem for central, but wouldn't solve the problem related to the AS Tools. A plugin can depend on the as.core plugin and doesn't depend on *as7x plugins. When installing such a plugin, it will install the as.core plugin, but won't install *as7x* plugin. The user will be able to add AS 7.x server, but won't be able to work with it. The problem is that the as.core plugin declares AS 7 server/runtimes, but can't use them without *as7x plugin. Since the as.core plugin doesn't require *as7 plugins, every plugin that adds the as.core plugin, must also add *as7x plugins. The problem happens in runtime no matter if those dependencies are necessary for compilation or not. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
