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

Konstantin,

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

Then I tried installing from 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.

We have Indigo and Helios variants of our solutions. It sounds like I’d either have to keep the “for Indigo” and “for 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.
