Description Nalini Ganapati CLA 2009-05-08 12:22:30 EDT 
Build ID: Eclipse 3.5 M7

The org.apache.commons.httpclient plugin is a "required" plugin in org.eclipse.equinox.p2.user.ui feature whereas org.apache.commons.httpclient.source is "included" in the corresponding org.eclipse.equinox.p2.user.ui.source feature. Is this an intended disparity?
Comment 1 Pascal Rapicault CLA 2009-05-08 20:56:40 EDT 
Probably not. Moving to releng
Comment 2 Kim Moir CLA 2009-05-13 08:44:49 EDT 
Andrew, do you know why the generated source feature would include the plugins in the source feature that are listed as required in the runtime feature?
Comment 3 Andrew Niefer CLA 2009-05-15 13:12:09 EDT 
Required plugins are not included in generated source features.  org.apache.common.httpclient.source is added to the source feature using plugin@ syntax on the generate.feature property.  There is no current support for adding requires in this manner.
Comment 4 David Williams CLA 2014-03-23 14:58:36 EDT 
We no longer build/deliver this bundle, as far as I can tell, will will close as "won't fix". 

Feel free to re-open if I am missing something and its still important to you.
