---------------------------------------------
JBIDE-20170 disagrees with you on the subject of the url not needing testing.
And this url is not going to point to the *same* url all the time thus it needs testing.
Use jbosstools aggregate site instead of special webtools-site for
WTP's AS server discovery

Key: JBIDE-19757
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-19757
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: build, server
Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Nick Boldt
Priority: Minor
Labels: releasework
Fix For: 4.3.0.Beta1
With
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=434185 , WTP Server Discovery
mechanism was granted a new strategy which allows to rely on regular p2 metadata instead
of a site.xml.
Support for this was already merged in server (
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-server/commit/2d3cc63a9b67753ad9...
)
In order to save an artifact to manage (the webtools p2 repository), we could use this
mechanism and consider contributing directly the main JBT URL to webtools discovery.
However, server discovery also keeps older strategies and since we produce invalid
site.xml files, this is currently failing
{code}
!ENTRY org.eclipse.equinox.p2.updatesite 2 0 2015-05-04 09:40:58.088
!MESSAGE Error parsing feature stream. The unique identifier or the version is null or
empty for the State: "Category": unique identifier="minimal-json"
version="null".
{code}
because we are lines specifying bundle but no version in the site.xml.
[~nickboldt] What are those site.xml useful for? Could we get rid of them?
