[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-4184?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13324475#comment-13324475 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-4184:
----------------------------------

OOTB, devstudio doesn't know about its installed features, only its installed plugins.

 !installation-doesn-show-plugins.png|thumbnail!  
!installation-doesn-show-features2.png|thumbnail!  
!installation-doesn-show-features.png|thumbnail! 

But, after installing one or more things from Central (or anywhere else) we get a "migration" dialog triggered. Once that process is done, Help > About shows what we expect (more installed content and the correct buttons on the Help > About  dialog)...

  !installation-does-show-installl-after-migration.png|thumbnail! 

And a check for updates shows available updates...

 !installation-does-show-avail-updates-after-migration.png|thumbnail!

So... updates ARE available, once migration is triggered and all the correct metadata needed for p2 to do its job correctly is generated.

> I tried "Check for Updates" in DevStudio 20161116.1305 and 20161113.1010. I used this update site:
> [1] https://devstudio.redhat.com/10.0/snapshots/updates/
> Eclipse was not able to detect any updates (I got "No updates were found" message).
> Then I tried to install plugins using "Install new software".
> Install new software->select Bring Your Own Eclipse->next->restart
> Eclipse didn't detect any problems or conflicts during installation but after restart I got a lot of errors and eclipse didn't start.
>  [^rh-eclipse46-devstudio10.2.log.20161116.1305_update_2.txt] 
>  [^rh-eclipse46-devstudio10.2.log.20161113.1010_update.txt] 
> I also noticed there isn't update site [1] by default after installation. I had to add it.
