Re: [p2-dev] unable to update feature patch

[Andrew Eisenberg <andrew@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Daniel,

I am trying to upgrade the jdt.core bundle along with the feature
patch.  If it's true that the product does not allow upgrades of JDT,
do you know where I would find this information in the metadata?
Also, do you know how we could create a product that would allow such
upgrades?


thanks,
