[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-2874) Support updating JBDS via BYOE (update site) w/o having to update product too

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2874?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12936419#comment-12936419 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-2874:
----------------------------------

Updating the Core Features feature w/o having to update the Branded Product feature is new here. So it's more like as if the user started from Eclipse + Marketplace install than from the installer jar. 

This means we could have a JBDS 8.0.0 product w/ JBDS 8.1 features in it, without having to update the product to 8.1 as well. So the user could choose to stay on Luna R instead of moving to Luna SR1.

> I've found a way to make it possible to update JBDS contents (eg., the Core Features) without having to update the product too. This makes the JBDS-in-Eclipse and JBDS-via-installer experience the same in terms of being able to update piecemeal - you can now update Eclipse / product OR the JBDS features, or both. 
> Do we want this?
