[jbosstools-dev] Installing JBT 4.1.1.x builds on JBDS 7.0.1

[Nick Boldt]

You can only update JBDS installed via the installer from a JBDS update 
site, if the thing you're trying to update is IN JBDS (rather that in 
Central). This is because the installer will install a top-level 
"Branded Product" feature which restricts all the 
required/included/child features to specific versions.

Conversely, the "Bring Your Own Eclipse" JBDS is not restricted the same 
way.

So, there are two options:

a) install JBDS "Branded Product" feature from its 7.1.0.Beta1 update 
site [1] as an update to JBDS [2] installed via the installer. This only 
works if the Beta1 site includes the new CordovaSim stuff.

or

b) install JBDS 7.1.0.Beta1 "Core Features" feature [3] or 7.0.1.GA 
"Core Features" [4] into your own Eclipse Kepler install ("Bring Your 
Own Eclipse"). Then you should be able to update w/o the conflict to 
newer versions of JBT or JBDS as you require.
