[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-12565) Deduce all target-platforms (local + unified) from multiple.target

[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12565?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12716721#comment-12716721 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-12565:
------------------------------------

re: missing IUs:

multiple.target reference the composite with ALL the requirements [1]. The IU is available on that composite.
local.target and unified.target reference the subset [2] of the above site [1], which is the target platform site [2] generated from [1].

So it's entirely reasonable that multiple.target would validate (everything can be found) whereas unified.target would not (because not all the IUs in [1] are copied to [2]).

[1] http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/juno/SR0/, http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/juno/SR0a/
[2] http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/target-platform_4.0.juno.SR0/latest/, http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/target-platform_4.0.juno.SR0a/latest/

Your new approach will bootstrap [2] with IUs, then run validation to see if everything needed by the TP is in fact on the TP site, including the need for multiple versions of IUs (we already had lucene.core 3.5.0 but not 2.9.1).

> In order to make maintainance easier and target-platform more reliable, we should improve the way we create target-platforms so we only maintain multople.target and other platforms (local, unified) get generated from it.
