Re: [jdt-core-dev] [platform-releng-dev] Problem with P2 repository of Eclipse JDK9 extension

This is, probably, intentional. We do not typically update the
composites until the JDT team and/or PMC gives the "all clear" since
the composite site is what feeds the "Market Place" version. So we
need to be sure a particular update is well tested and intended before
putting into the composite (i.e. not automatically added).

Did you "just happen to see them" and think maybe you should get up do
date? Or do you know of a fix that went into one of them, and wanted
to install it to test the fix? (If the latter, you can simply add a
new software site in your IDE pointing to that specific URL to get
that one version ("at your own risk").  :)
I encountered a bug: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=497218
Given it was solved one month ago, I hoped for it (I usually expect a pre-release version to be released more often even if less stable).

I go to see real contents of P2 repository, given the behaviour of Eclipse ("Check for Updates" always suggest an update for JDK9 plugin but never download and install a more recent version).

I will change P2 URL of JDK9 plugin in my Eclipse to target the (current) latest version.

I have CC'd the jdt-core-dev list as they would be the ones to know
for sure what version should be available via the composite site.

Thanks for asking,
Thanks for response,

Daniel Latrémolière.
