[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-12307) unified.target appears broken

[Paul Richardson (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12307?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12706548#comment-12706548 ] 

Paul Richardson commented on JBIDE-12307:
-----------------------------------------

Have just given it a try with limited results.

The target platform is set but results in 1000s of compile errors as is usual with an invalid target platform.

Went into Window > Preferences > Target Platform and clicked Reload.
This results in:

"Problems were found in the selected target definition. You can still set the definition as the active target but there may be problems building. Reason: Problems occurred getting the plug-ins in this container"

So it looks like the target does need to be fully resolved before eclipse co-operates.

> Use of the unified.target fails as PDE target platform for both Indigo and Juno.
> *Indigo IDE*
> Use of the trunk version of unified.target results in org.lucene.core 3.5-4 not being found, which is true since only version 2.91 is available in the update site - http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/target-platform_3.4.juno.SR0/latest/plugins
> *Juno IDE*
> Use of the trunk version of unified.target results in package org.xmlpull.mxp1 not being found as a requirement of XStream.
> Both errors imply an incomplete target platform but does the fact that they are different errors imply that plugins in the installed IDE are assumed to be there?
> Should it not be possible to take an eclipse Indigo and develop against a Juno target platform?
