[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-6116) Would be very nice if JBoss Tools would download and install JBoss AS into a local directory so that manual configuration can be avoided.

Brian Fitzpatrick commented on JBIDE-6116:
------------------------------------------

We should look into the new functionality in 3.6 that Mylyn and WTP Server adapters are using for downloading this type of thing to see if we could adapt it somehow for downloading a runtime... just a thought.

> When using the GlassFish eclipse plug-in, if the Server Runtime is not currently installed or configured, the plug-in will give you a chance to configure the Runtime, or click a button/link to have the plugin go out to the internet, download, and configure the application server for you.
> I think it would be great for new users/usability if JBoss Tools could provide a similar convenience.
> The latest plugin-compatible version of the AS should probably be the target of the download.
