[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-12697) Archives should be manageable also after re-adding archive support

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12697?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Rob Stryker resolved JBIDE-12697.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Rejected


Removing project archives support completely cleans the project of project-archives related artifacts. A re-enablement is the same as starting from scratch.  This also won't be changed. The presence of the .packages file assumes 100% that project archives is enabled. Any project with a .packages file can be automatically registered with the framework at any time. So the only way to remove project archives support is to delete the file, and thus, not be able to preserve the data from inside of it.

> Supposing you have project with some archive created in it. If you re-add(1.remove,2.add) archive support in this project, archive is no longer manageable by archives explorer or archives view. 
> I think it would be very useful, if any Project Archives feature compatible archives would be manageable also after re-adding archives support. I don't see any reason why they shouldn't be.
