----------------------------------------
I believe our current approach with a composite to really control what is enabled for user
at installation works fine and make the release-train specific URL useless. So overall, +1
for that change, although I didn't look into details.
remove need for a targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/neon site

Key: JBIDE-21233
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-21233
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build, target-platform
Affects Versions: 4.4.0.Alpha1
Reporter: Nick Boldt
Assignee: Nick Boldt
Fix For: 4.4.0.Alpha1
For the last few years, we've had an associate site ref inside the JBT agg site,
pointing at "the latest maximum TP", eg.,
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/mars/
But since we now always co-release JBT with its TP in the same URL, this is only useful
for someone who wants to do an OFFLINE install using the zip, which will then go ONLINE to
resolve TP dependencies. It's at best a broken use case, and at worst it's
unnecessary cruft to maintain.
Therefore I propose we stop linking to this site.
We can build the aggregates using a specific TP (the one in the parent pom, natch), and
simply NOT use an associate site in the JBT aggregate site build.
