Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-3934:
----------------------------------
Also please note that if your workflow is as follows you *can* uninstall a product but you
must do a COLD restart (shut down devstudio entirely, not just restart it).
* Install Eclipse Neon.0 JavaEE bundle or equivalent
* Help > Install new >
https://devstudio.jboss.com/10.0/staging/updates/ >
uncheck "show only categorized items" > install the "Branded
Product" feature
* COLD restart (shut down eclipse entirely and start it up again) rather than just
restarting when prompted
* Help > About should now show you're running devstudio, not Eclipse
* Help > About > Install details > uninstall ... and remove devstudio
* COLD restart (shut down eclipse entirely and start it up again) rather than just
restarting when prompted
* Now you should be back to running just Eclipse.
If on the other hand you installed from the installer .jar, there's no way to
uninstall the product because there's no older product underneath to which to revert.
And if you install from the update site, Marketplace, or any other BYOE scenario that
doesn't involve installing the hidden "Branded Product" feature, again,
there's no product to uninstall so the best you can do is uninstall features that sit
atop Eclipse.
Uninstall process results in odd things
---------------------------------------
Key: JBDS-3934
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3934
Project: Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio (devstudio)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: upstream
Affects Versions: 10.0.0.GA
Environment: Fedora 23
Reporter: Misha Ali
Attachments: error.log, uninstall.png, uninstalled_but_running.png
I've tried to uninstall devstudio 10 GA a few times and got odd results. I'm
trying to replicate one of the odd results, so I'll talk about the really odd one I
just encountered:
1. Uninstalling by selecting both the the eclipse test instance and devstudio 10 results
in restarting devstudio but without these two components available to uninstall. Surely
uninstall should just remove devstudio and then exit devstudio.
