[jbosstools-dev] Anonymous Downloads for Alpha release, JBT, and Stacks

[David Hladky]

Hi Rob, 

using the /jdf links is the right way to do on your side. However I do not understand the requiresCredentials issue is. Is it a problem on your side or does the service return you something unexcpected? If so, have you checked you saved the changes?

Subject: Anonymous Downloads for Alpha release, JBT, and Stacks

Hey all:

I've made a comment over on https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18709  
investigating the issue of anonymous downloads as it pertains to alpha 
releases, stacks, and JBT as a group.

It'd be good if those addressed directly above (david, rafael) had a 
look just so that everyone's aware of the issues of adding any Alpha 
release to JBoss Stacks.

The tl;dr of it is:  if we do add alpha releases to stacks, we must 
still use the jdf URL, and we must still set requiresCredentials=true, 
even though it's not accurate. Otherwise we risk breaking older releases 
of JBT.

Any questions or comments are welcome and encouraged on the jira issue 
directly.

Thanks in advance.
