Re: [rap-dev] Move WAR Products to RAP Tools?

Hi all,
to be honest, I'm still using the WAR Products when I want to create a WAR from my workspace bundles (instead from target/p2 repo). This is useful for testing, debugging and resolving deployment problems with current workspace RAP bundles. That's why I like the idea to keep the WAR Products alive, but I can't estimate the maintenance effort it requires.
Regards,
Ivan

Hi RAP devs,

The WAR Products tooling that is currently hosted by the Eclipse Libra
project [1] which started to develop enterprise tools for OSGi. This
project is now unmaintained and about to be terminated [2]. Should we
adopt the WAR Products tooling in RAP Tools?

Pro:
- we advertise this tooling in our developer's guide
- we know that it is used by some parts of our community
- it depends only on PDE, has a tycho build, moving should be pretty painless

Contra:
- it's not specific to RAP
- we'd take over the responsibility for it (not sure if it uses PDE internals)
- we'd also adopt the bugs (am I right that there are 32 ones open?)
- AFAIK, we don't use this tooling anymore by ourselves in favor of
automated tycho builds

Thoughts? Alternatives?

Regards, Ralf
