Nick Boldt created TEIIDDES-1843: ------------------------------------ Summary: could installation of Teiid Designer be made simpler via p2 metadata <references> to upstream sites? Key: TEIIDDES-1843 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-1843 Project: Teiid Designer Issue Type: Bug Components: Build, Documentation, Usability Affects Versions: 8.2 Reporter: Nick Boldt Current instructions for installing Teiid Designer 8.2 involve multiple steps, installs, and restarts of Eclipse. This is more complex than it needs to be. Instead, the Teiid Designer update site could simply reference the upstream URLs that it needs to perform the installation, and as long as all of Teiid Designer's features & plugins properly define dependencies on the required upstream features and plugins on these update sites, installation should be able to proceed from a single URL, rather than a handful. It would allow installation via a single step, rather than several iterative steps. I'll attach a PR to demonstrate this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
