[eclipse.org-planning-council] [Fwd: Re: [wtp-dev] Pieces missing from Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers distribution]]
|
There is an issue with the Java EE Developer package that causes
serious problems when trying to use the Update Manager after the
initial installation. This is due to a couple of missing plugins that
should be in the package. See bug 194959 and below for more
information. These missing plugins only affect the Update Manager
functionality, but affect it in a very serious way.
The question is whether or not we should pull the Java EE package from
the download section until this issue can be corrected, as this is
likely to be a major user issue when it comes to updating or adding
functionality via the Update Manager.

-------- Original Message --------
Unfortunately it appears that a couple of plugins didn't make it into
the JEE distribution for some reason. Specifically:
org.eclipse.datatools.doc.user_1.0.0.200706071.jar
org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.finfo_1.5.0.200706221.jar
This was probably the result of trying to user "feature level" prereqs
in the JPT feature. This may have caused a problem with prereq's for
the IDE distributions. The pure -Update Manager from Platform only-
path will download the correct plugins and therefore will not have this
issue.
To remedy the problem with the current JEE configuration, one must
download the Data Tools Platform Enablement feature AND the Data Tools
Platform Documentation feature.
This seems like a pretty serious usability issue.

I
downloaded this distribution, went to install WLS Server Tools via an
update site and got the following message:
Java
Persistence API Tools (1.0.0.v200706250000-77--CYQCCz-CoRPCCCH)
requires feature "org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.feature".
Screen
shot attached.
Note
that the feature that I am installing has no dependencies on JPA or
DTP. I looked at the distribution and indeed it does not contain
org.eclipse.datatools.enablement.feature feature. In fact there are
quite a few datatools features missing as compared to a "standard" WTP
installation (as downloaded via the WTP build page). It looks like this
problem will prevent installation of all features via the update site
mechanism.
Not
sure who owns creating this distribution...
