[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17002?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Nick Boldt edited comment on JBIDE-17002 at 4/11/14 12:13 AM: -------------------------------------------------------------- PR to add new connector to JBT 4.1.2's JBoss Central: https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-discovery/pull/151 [~fbricon], [~maxandersen], [~mickael_istria] - your feedback on this PR is welcome. *Screenshots* !jbide17002-3-4-features.png! (minimal install, just the three features that Fred asked for) !jbide17002-6-7-features.png! (full install, including optional features that were included in the patch sites and are therefore in our mirror) *QUESTIONS* Do we want to include the extra m2e and pde features? Or just the 3 that Fred requested? Seems like we should include all of them. Also, what URL would you like for the overview? I can't remember how or where that URL appears in the UI, but I suppose we should link somewhere. *HOW TO USE* Locally this PR was applied and built and I installed into both Kepler 4.3 and 4.3.2 JEE bundles successfully. If you're testing it locally, you'd do this: 1. launch a local web server, eg., nanohttpd [1] on port 8080 pointing at where you have the jbosstools-discovery folder checked out.
