[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-16757) move m2e.jdt.feature from JBDS TP to Central TP and expose as connector in Central Discovery site?

[Mickael Istria (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16757?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12960041#comment-12960041 ] 

Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-16757:
----------------------------------------

If we need ship it in our RCP application, then -1. Let's keep it on target-platform since it's mandatory to build JBDS (TP is meant to contain everything mandatory to build JBDS, including installer).
If we don't need it in RCP application and if it is only useful on Central, then +1 for moving it to Central TP.

Same comment applies to TestNG, which IMO should be in JBDS TP since we need it in order to build JBDS.

> Currently, we include m2e.jdt.feature (an m2e-extension) in the JBDS TP, but not the JBT one.

>     <!-- NOTE: m2e-extension m2e.jdt.feature is only in JBDS BYOE / installer (unlike maven.jdt.feature, which is part of jbosstools-central and is therefore in BOTH JBT & JBDS update sites) -->

> Since this is useful to JBT users and JBDS users alike, we could consider moving this from the JBDS TP into the Central TP and exposing it as a new Central Discovery connector.
