[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-500) JBoss Tools (nightly) Prevents any Eclipse Plug-in Update
[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBIDE-500?page=comments#action_12367333 ]
Todd Flinders commented on JBIDE-500:
-------------------------------------
In an attempt to determine if I simply hadn't satisfied the JBoss Tools dependencies,
I tried another installation method that seems to yield more clues.
1. Install Eclipse 3.3 (stable).
2. Launch Eclipse.
3. Help | Software Updates | Find and Install | Search for new features to install
4. Install the Europa Discovery site features (I took the shotgun approach and installed
everything). Everything installs fine.
5. Restart Eclipse.
6. Shutdown Eclipse.
7. Unzip JBossTools-200706290355-nightly-ALL-linux-gtk to the Eclipse 3.3 directory
8. Launch Eclipse
9. Now I see the JBoss Tools icons and the Red Hat menu that I had not seen previously!
10. Help | Software Updates | Find and Install | Search for new features to install
11. Install Subclipse. It installs fine!
12. Restart Eclipse.
Sadly, the JBoss Tools icons and Red Hat menu are now gone again. I do not see anything
that looks JBoss or Red Hat specific in the Show View and Open Perspective selection
boxes. Nor do I see anything that looks JBoss or Red Hat specific in the "New"
selection wizard.
However, Subclipse is installed and seems to work.
I have seen the installation wiki at:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=InstallingJBossToolsNightlyBuilds
The discussion of dependencies at the wiki entry is not entirely clear to me. Have I (and
several others) just misunderstood and installed incorrectly?
JBoss Tools (nightly) Prevents any Eclipse Plug-in Update

Key: JBIDE-500
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBIDE-500
Project: JBoss Tools
Issue Type: Bug
Components: EJB3 plugin
Environment: Eclipse Europa 3..3 (stable)
JBossTools-200706290355-nightly-ALL-linux-gtk
java version "1.5.0_10"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_10-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_10-b03, mixed mode, sharing)
openSUSE 10.2
Linux HQISB-7Y2GF61 2.6.18.8-0.3-default #1 SMP Tue Apr 17 08:42:35 UTC 2007 i686 i686

Reporter: Todd Flinders

After installing the nightly JBoss Tools nightly build on Eclipse 3.3 stable, updates are
prevented due to the following error:
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.ejb3.feature (1.0.0.200706290355-nightly) requires plug-in
"org.eclipse.wst.server.core".
It should be noted I'm referring to JBoss Tools nightly build installed by unpacking
the zip file downloaded from
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/nightly/200706290355-nightly/....
This is not to be confused with the JBossIDE Beta 2.
The problem can be demonstrated by attempting to install subclipse (for example). The
steps to recreate the problem are:
1. Install a fresh Eclipse 3.3.
2. Unzip JBossTools-200706290355-nightly-ALL-linux-gtk to the Eclipse 3.3 directory
3. In Eclipse: Help | Software Updates | Find and Install | Search for new features to
install
4. Add a new remote site. In my case I added Subclipse with the update URL of
http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.2.x
5. Select a feature to install, in my case Subclipse | Subclipse Plugin
6. The error is displayed at the top of the Updates window:
org.jboss.ide.eclipse.ejb3.feature (1.0.0.200706290355-nightly) requires plug-in
"org.eclipse.wst.server.core".
