Re: [mpc-dev] New features for Eclipse Marketplace and the Eclipse Marketplace Client

Thanks for all the updates and the bug reports. I will eagerly await the
fixes. I am very excited to be able to clean up our marketplace listings.

Konstantin,

I've found the issue with Juno and earlier, see

different Eclipse versions. Mars M6, Luna and Kepler worked as expected.
Juno displayed all entries, including “GlassFish Tools for X” that it
shouldn’t be seeing. When I selected the multi-variant “GlassFish Tools”
entry, it didn’t know what to do with it and selected the Mars variant.

Helios” as separate solutions or drop support for those platforms through
Marketplace.

>> Dear Marketplace Listing Owners,
>>
>> We are very pleased to announce two new features for Eclipse Marketplace
and the Eclipse Marketplace Client that will be part of the Mars release.
>>
>> 1.	The Eclipse Marketplace Client has been improved to only display
listings that are compatible with the version of Eclipse the user is
running. As a Marketplace listing owner, you now have the ability to create
different versions of your listings, called 'Solution Versions', that are
specific to the version of Eclipse. For each Solution Version, you can
specify an update site, feature IDs, supported operating system and
supported version of Eclipse. The default for all listings will be they are
supported for all versions of Eclipse.
>> 2.	For your Marketplace listing, you can now specify if a Feature ID is
one of three conditions: 1) Required, 2) Optional but selected by default,
and 3) Optional and not selected. We hope this will provide more flexibility
for you to specify the feature IDs that are installed with Marketplace
Client.
>>
>> Both of these features will be available in the Eclipse Mars release in
June 2015. To prepare for Mars and these new features we recommend the
following:
>>
>> 1.	If your Eclipse listing is compatible with all versions of Eclipse
then you don't need to do anything but we recommend you to have a look at
your listing's feature IDs and specify which are required or optional.
>> 2.	If your Eclipse listing is specific to a version of Eclipse, please
create a new Solution Version in Eclipse Marketplace for each version. You
can do this today from your Eclipse Marketplace account.
>>
>> Please let us know if you have any questions.

>> Christopher Guindon
