As part of ongoing work to integrate bnd(tools) and PDE to create a set of reusable components there is now a new Bundle Repositories view available:

Once open it shows content similar to what the PDE Target Platform State view does when you select a classic PDE project:

in addition to simple text search it also offers an advanced search feature:

If you select a bnd-style project, this is detected and shown as follows:

Additional information about this view can be found here. If there are requests for more features or improvements let us know or just open a PR here.

PDE now includes the JAR Viewer to allow convenient inspection of jar files and OSGi Manifests.

The Target Editor includes a new option Follow repository references that is enabled by default (even though it isn't serialized). When disabled, it is serialized as followRepositoryReferences="false". In that case, reference repositories visible through the repositories defined in your .target files will not be followed. This essentially makes all your repositories self-contained, making them easy to mirror.
