RequiredCapability does not impact the resolution algorithm per-se. It
just captures the dependencies an IU has onto other things.
The optional flag of a required capability is simply used by the
resolver to ignore a dependency that can not be satisfied.

Hi all,
I'm trying to find possible hacks in Tycho/p2 to make Tycho able to
include platform-specific features in category.xml. This usually fails
during target-platform resolution, so I would like to find a way to
first make Tycho much more (too) permissive by forcing all
dependencies to be "optional".
So I landed onto the RequiredCapability class, which describes how
things are resolved. However I didn't see in this class about
"optional" is defined. How is the optional behavior described at this
layer of p2 API?
Thanks in advance,
