[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBTIS-654) JBDSIS stand-alone installer

[Lars Heinemann (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBTIS-654?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13195963#comment-13195963 ] 

Lars Heinemann commented on JBTIS-654:
--------------------------------------

I am against bundling a runtime. That simply makes no sense when we also provide a simple link in the wizard which lets the user download any specific version of the runtime. That will also couple the tooling again to a fixed runtime version which we don't want to have.
Additionally the runtime would add another ~700 Megabyte to the installer which will make it a huge download. I wouldn't recommend that.
Keep in mind when talking about different versions of the installer that someone has to test each version. That will be a lot of extra effort for the QE team.
