Snjezana Peco commented on JBDS-533:
------------------------------------

I have committed patched org.eclipse.equinox.transforms.hook to https://svn.jboss.org/repos/devstudio/trunk/transforms/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.transforms.hook.
The problem is described on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=276638#c8
If you replace the existing plugin with this one, you will have to call Eclipse with 'osgi.bundles=...' once either in eclipse.ini or in config.ini. This has to be done at least once due to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=253244
If you call metadata.generator with -clean and with  'osgi.bundles=...' , you won't have to add osgi.bundles=...' either to eclipse.ini or to config.ini.
After these changes, you will be able to remove -clean from eclipse.ini.

> Develop a plugin which will be able to transform / invalidate other plugins in an installation.  First iteration could be just a core with a hard-coded list of plugins / extension points which we want invalidated.
> The goal here is to have all appropriate plugins in our installation, but disable the ones we do not want. Currently, JBDS removes the webtools jboss server-tools jar entirely, which makes the update site fail. What we need here is to have the webtools jboss server-tools jar IN hte installation, and loaded as a plugin, but have all of its extension points invalidated so it is effectively an empty non-contributing plugin. 
> org.eclipse.jst.server.generic.jboss_1.5.205.v200805140145  is the plugin we need invalidated.  We need it's plugin.xml to be essentially empty with just base <plugin></plugin> tags.
