[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-2068) Support notion of "optional" installable connectors in JBoss Central

[Snjezana Peco (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2068?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12698583#comment-12698583 ] 

Snjezana Peco commented on JBDS-2068:
-------------------------------------

We would have to check dependencies for each JBoss Central feature. The only way to do it is to use the P2 API. This could be very slow especially if there are big and/or slow update sites. Loading the Software/Update page could be very slow.

Max,
Do you have any comment on this?

> So, we need to implement a way of having optional dependencies in Central. I believe the goal here would be to mark git integration w/ github and w/ mylyn as OPTIONAL when installing com.jboss.jbds.git.feature.
