[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-11299) Central should install Project Examples otherwise the Project Examples area on Getting Started tab says "No Entries Found" instead of showing JBoss Quickstarts

[Snjezana Peco (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11299?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12683646#comment-12683646 ] 

Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-11299:
---------------------------------------

JBoss Central requires the project examples.

org.jboss.tools.project.examples.feature, org.jboss.tools.maven.project.examples.feature and the org.jboss.tools.central plugin have to be included in both, JBT and JBDS.
The com.jboss.jbds.project.examples plugin has to be included in JBDS.
The org.jboss.tools.community.project.examples plugin has to be included in JBT.

If a user installs the org.jboss.tools.central feature only, he won't have required project examples plugins and quickstarts/wizards won't work correctly.


Currently, these features are defined in the following way:

com.jboss.jbds.product.feature

{code}
<includes id="org.eclipse.platform" version="0.0.0" />
<includes id="com.jboss.jbds.m2e.feature" version="0.0.0" />

<plugin id="com.jboss.jbds.product" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" />
<plugin id="com.jboss.jbds.project.examples" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" />
<plugin id="com.jboss.jbds.usage.branding" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" unpack="false" />
<plugin id="com.jboss.jbds.central" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" unpack="false" />

<!-- JBIDE-11299 - include JBT Central feature (and contained plugin) in JBDS Central -->
<!-- <plugin id="org.jboss.tools.central" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" unpack="false"/> --> 
<includes id="org.jboss.tools.central.feature" version="0.0.0" />
{code}

org.jboss.tools.central.feature

{code}
<plugin id="org.jboss.tools.central" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" unpack="false"/> 
{code}

org.jboss.tools.community.central.feature

{code}
<!-- JBIDE-11299 - include Examples features when installing Central -->
   <requires>
      <import feature="org.jboss.tools.central.feature" version="1.0.0.qualifier" match="greaterOrEqual"/>
      <import feature="org.jboss.tools.project.examples.feature" version="1.2.1.qualifier" match="greaterOrEqual"/>
      <import feature="org.jboss.tools.community.project.examples.feature" version="1.2.1.qualifier" match="greaterOrEqual"/>
      <import feature="org.jboss.tools.maven.project.examples.feature" version="1.3.0.qualifier" match="greaterOrEqual"/>
   </requires>

   <plugin id="org.jboss.tools.community.central" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0"/>
{code}


These definitions contain the following issues:

- the org.jboss.tools.community.central plugin isn't necessary anymore and needs to be removed.
- the com.jboss.jbds.product.feature feature has to include/require the org.jboss.tools.maven.project.examples plugin/feature.
- the com.jboss.jbds.product.feature feature includes the org.jboss.tools.central plugin and doesn't have to include the org.jboss.tools.central.feature

After fixing these issues, the org.jboss.central.feature feature would have to be removed from the update site. 
The user would have to install the org.jboss.tools.community.central.feature feature that includes all required plugins.

Yes, and what I don't grok is why we don't have a com.jboss.jbds.central which does this:

<imports id="org.jboss.tools.central.feature" version="0.0.0" />
<plugin id="com.jboss.jbds.central" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" unpack="false" />
<plugin id="com.jboss.jbds.project.examples" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="0.0.0" />
{quote}

The com.jboss.jbds.central.feature isn't necessary. All the required plugins in JBDS can be added to the com.jboss.jbds.product.feature feature.

{quote}
Actually to be symmetric there should be features for those plugins but not sure why we have that in community too.

The org.jboss.tools.community.central.feature would be a new feature that includes JBoss Central and all its required plugins/features in JBT.

>          Components: central
>    Affects Versions: 3.3.0.Beta1
>            Reporter: Nick Boldt

> Steps to repro:
> 1. unpack eclipse-platform-3.7.2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
> 2. install JBoss Tools 3.3.0.Beta1 (whole Abridged category) from http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/indigo/
> 3. restart when prompted, and look at Central:
> !eclipse372platform+JBTAbridged=ProjectExamplesFound.png!
> Now, try again but only install Central feature (to save time, use JEE bundle):
> 1. unpack eclipse-jee-indigo-SR1-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
> 2. install ONLY JBoss Central 3.3.0.Beta1 from http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/indigo/
> 3. restart when prompted, and look at Central:
> !IndigoSR1-JEE+Central+all-of-central=noProjectExamplesFound.png!
> 4. If I then install these three features, the Quickstarts appear:
> {code}
> org.jboss.tools.project.examples.feature_1.2.1.v20120305-1726-H75-Beta1
> org.jboss.tools.community.project.examples.feature_1.2.1.v20120305-1726-H75-Beta1
> org.jboss.tools.maven.project.examples.feature_1.3.0.v20120307-0425-H80-Beta1
> {code}
> So... does this mean the central feature should include & depend on these three features?
