Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-15499:
------------------------------------

I tried this, which shows drag and drop works on Linux:

1. Install Kepler JEE SR1 from eclipse-jee-kepler-SR1-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz

2. Fire up Eclipse, install JBT "Central Community" feature from http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightly/core/4.1.kepler/ (to verify this is fixed in Beta1, forthcoming respin-b)

3. On restart, dragged the above URL into various parts of the UI but nothing happened until I dragged this URL [1] into the Central view.

[1] http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/central/install?connectors=org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.mylyn,org.jboss.tools.arquillian,org.eclipse.m2e

4. I was unable to discover the org.eclipse.m2e connector, but the rest could be installed:

5. Remediation was not shown:

6. On restart:

This is how I launched Eclipse, FWIW:

{code}
#!/bin/bash

workspace=/home/nboldt/eclipse/workspace-clean43
target=/home/nboldt/eclipse/43clean
eclipse=/home/nboldt/tmp/Eclipse_Bundles/eclipse-jee-kepler-SR1-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz

cd ${target}
if [[ $1 == "e" ]]; then
  echo "Wipe $target/eclipse and $workspace ..."
  rm -fr $target/eclipse $workspace
  echo "Unpack $eclipse ..."
  tar xzf $eclipse
  shift
fi

${target}/eclipse/eclipse -clean -showLocation -data $workspace -consolelog -console -vm /opt/sun-java2-7.0/bin/java -vmargs -Xms128M -Xmx256M -XX:PermSize=128M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M $1 $2 $3 $4 2>&1 | tee "logs/eclipse.log.`date`.txt"
{code}

> usecase is that you can have a link to a connector, such as JBDS-IS could be installed by drag'n'drop to jboss tools or jbds.
> Similar to eclipse marketplace for marketplace urls something like:
> * https://devstudio.jboss.com/central/install?connector=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e or 
> * http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/central/install?CID=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e
> would install the two connectors named "com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel" and "org.eclipse.m2e"
> This would allow drag'n'drop install from html docs.
> Consider also supporting this from any clipboard object (eg., dragged from an Acrobat Reader PDF or Microsoft Office doc). Would need to ensure we do lots of platform testing.
