[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-18678) Make dependencies to org.jboss.tools.usage optional

[Kaloyan Raev (JIRA)]

Kaloyan Raev commented on JBIDE-18678:
--------------------------------------

For the moment I create my own fake org.jboss.tools.usage bundle and include it in the build of my product. This does the job, but it's a little hackery from release engineering point of view.

I guess usage_reporting_enabled="false" would work too, but I like better the approach I took for now, because of two reasons:
1) It also removes the Usage Reporting preferences page
2) the usage_reporting_enabled system property should be added in the eclipse.ini file. I have concerns that the new settings from eclipse.ini will be immediately applied when restarting the product after upgrade from an older version. This way the Usage Reporting may still appear after upgrade.

> I am interested in adopting the CordovaSim feature in our product. However, most of the browsersim bundles have a strong dependency to org.jboss.tools.usage bundle, which force a Usage Reporting popup on startup. I want to avoid this and have the org.jboss.tools.usage excluded from my build.
> Is it possible to make the dependencies to org.jboss.tools.usage optional?
