-----------------------------------

             Summary: Offline Support
                 Key: JBIDE-11192
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11192
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Burr Sutter


Many end-users of JBoss Tools wish to work "offline", something as simple as working on a plane trip without a wifi connection.   If the end-user has diligently cached all of his maven dependencies then he should be able to work without a network connection.

Use case scenarios include:
a- JBoss Central archetypes
b- JBoss Perspective File-New project options (matching the key archetypes)
c- jboss-as-plugin for command-line deployment of a project to the running AS instance
d- Deployment via WTP to localhost AS/EAP instance
e- Maven clean, compile, package
f- community & enterprise quickstarts are provided as a .zip, therefore the end-user could have them pre-downloaded and that list could look to local disk prior to the Internet
g- JBoss Central News & Blogs could have a more attractive solution to being offline (screenshot provided)
h- Archetypes that use CDN hosted libraries (e.g. HTML5 & jQuery) could provide an alternative or at least instruction on how to fetch the files and load them locally
