We can do that,
but it is a manual step that involves
releasing the features into the Mapfiles.
We generally avoid that until
the latest possible time since it is usually unnecessary.
Also, picking up the *exact* latest
time of any included plugin would be
a lot of work, so the only thing
rational is picking up "a date that is
later than the latest time
of any included plugin".
Cheers,

Martin,
Will the feature tag be updated before openRSE 3.0.1 is shipped so that
the date part of the qualifier on a feature shows the latest date of any
plugins in the feature?
Feature:
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710-2118s733I3H481539
Plugin:
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v200808050428
Thanks,
Eric

Yes,
PDE build has some clever algorithm to automatically increase the
feature qualifier when any contained plugin's qualifier changes (due
to changing the mapfile for the plugin).
PDE build uses the "generateFeatureVersionSuffix" directive to
enable or disable this feature.
I don't know how the algorithm works exactly, but it has been
fine-tuned a lot by many people until it could be guaranteed
that it doesn't generate too long suffixes but still guarantees
always moving alphabetically up only when plugin qualifiers
go up.
For more info, search bugzilla or read the PDE build docs.

Eric,
I checked the recent driver, and the following is the feature version and
plugin version for useraction:
Feature:
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710-2118s733I3H481539
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710-2118s733I3G663157
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710-2118s733I3G663157
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710-2118s733I3G58
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710-2118s733I3G53
Plugin:
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v200808050428
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v200807232046
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v200807232046
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080715
org.eclipse.rse.useractions_1.1.1.v20080710
As I can see, the non-date part of the feature version # is increased.
So it is probably not going to cause problem for Install Manager.
Martin, Dave,
It seems to me the feature # changed when the plugin version changed (by
tagging in the map file). Just wondering if you guys could give me some
information of how those non-date part of the feature # been generated?
Is it always increased?
Thanks,

Xuan,
The latest RSE driver has the updated openRSE driver.
I did notice that the useractions feature qualifier changed but the date
part of the qualifier did not. If the date part is not updated properly,
do you know that the other part always is greater than the previous build?
Otherwise, if someone already has the previous version of the feature installed,
IM would not install the newer one because it thinks it is older.
