Mickael Istria created JBDS-2153:
------------------------------------
Summary: Do not embed/wrap 3rd-party bundles in our sources
Key: JBDS-2153
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2153
Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Affects Versions: 5.0.0.Beta3
Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Mickael Istria
Fix For: 6.x
in devstudio/extras, we can see that we define some "wrapper" bundles for 3rd
party deps (findbugs, pmd, spring...). This is not the most straightforward approach, and
it seems like we could improve it. Here are some reasons that would have justified this
implementation, and some reasons why we can improve it:
a) the plugin and feature have the same IU name and therefore confuse
Tycho
How is this possible? p2 adds .feature.group to features. We should think
about a 3rd-party feature that requires either this plugins or features, that we could
provide in the extras site.
b) the plugin contributes to the welcome screen and breaks JBDS, so
we override that
According to Max, this is no more the case.
c) because the license doc is incomplete so we provide a more
explicit/accurate license by wrapping it w/ our own feature
We can use our feature
and add this bundle as required, so we use their bundles and they are installed from our
feature. Using required allows people to perform updates from the other sites by
themselves.
