[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-13702) ForgeCorePlugin could use an installed Forge 2 Runtime

[Max Rydahl Andersen (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13702?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12758097#comment-12758097 ] 

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-13702:
---------------------------------------------

With Forge 1 tooling the runtime is external.

Forge 2 is not external - its bundled inside as an osgi bundled. Thus you can't set this dynamically - you would need another layer of osgi bundles making a proper interface between the tool and forge2 to choose different bundle runtimes....

About unzipping files in the startup - eclipse does this automatically once. If that is a big overhead we can make the runtime bundle an exploded distro instead.

> In Forge 1, it is possible to configure external Forge runtimes. In Forge 2 it would be nice to allow configuration of that, but also avoid the need to unzip the files in the startup.
