[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-15435) "installed plugins" detection seems fishy in project examples / central

[Max Rydahl Andersen (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-15435?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12802672#comment-12802672 ] 

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-15435:
---------------------------------------------

[~nickboldt], The issue is described by [~fbricon]: "In the JBoss Central 'software updates' page, the GWT/GPE connector is shown as missing. In the GWT example wizard, the feature appears as installed."

I think the problem is that there is some broken or non-understood semantics in how the examples define and test the existence of the required plugins.

Why is both plugin and connector id necessary ? shouldn't connector id be sufficient ?

Right now connector id seem to only be used when deciding what to install.

IMO explicit plugin listing is only required if subset of plugins of a connector is enough - and if that is the case, how does a project example list multiple plugins ? and can they use features instead so they don't break if plugins gets added/remvoed ?

> Following JBDS-2753, [~maxandersen] says he installed the JBoss GWT connector, which dragged the GPE plugins.
> Some functionality seem missing according to Max (which ones?). In the JBoss Central 'software updates' page, the GWT/GPE connector is shown as missing. In the GWT example wizard, the feature appears as installed. One of the 2 is wrong, obviously.
