--------------------------------
Assignee: J.W. Janssen
> Improve the artifact view
> -------------------------
>
> Key: ACE-319
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACE-319
> Project: ACE
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: UI
> Reporter: Marcel Offermans
> Assignee: J.W. Janssen
>
> We should model our artifact view more after that of Bndtools and have a tree
> view that shows BSNs at the top level and versions beneath. This has a couple
> of benefits:
> a) It creates a better overview of the bundles and their versions than a flat
> list can ever give.
> b) It allows us to implement a more elegant solution for our dynamic vs
> static associations.
> That last aspect should probably be explained a bit more. We have either
> static or dynamic associations between artifacts and features. Static means,
> you link to exactly the BSN+version that you select. Dynamic means it will
> always link to the highest version of that BSN. By dragging a feature onto a
> BSN we can now always create a dynamic link, and by dragging it onto a
> specific version we can make it static. That not only simplifies the
> interaction, it also gives better feedback as you can now see what links are
> dynamic and which ones are not.
