Offline Support --------------- Key: JBIDE-11192 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11192 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: central Reporter: Burr Sutter Fix For: 3.3.0.Beta2 Attachments: Screen Shot 2012-03-07 at 1.53.40 PM.png Many end-users of JBoss Tools wish to work "offline", something as simple as working on a plane trip without a wifi connection. If the end-user has diligently cached all of his maven dependencies then he should be able to work without a network connection. Use case scenarios include: a- JBoss Central archetypes b- JBoss Perspective File-New project options (matching the key archetypes) c- jboss-as-plugin for command-line deployment of a project to the running AS instance d- Deployment via WTP to localhost AS/EAP instance e- Maven clean, compile, package f- community & enterprise quickstarts are provided as a .zip, therefore the end-user could have them pre-downloaded and that list could look to local disk prior to the Internet g- JBoss Central News & Blogs could have a more attractive solution to being offline (screenshot provided) h- Archetypes that use CDN hosted libraries (e.g. HTML5 & jQuery) could provide an alternative or at least instruction on how to fetch the files and load them locally
