Now that dev is merged into master, I wanted to revisit how I upgrade to the latest version of the zwave binding without updating the rest of openHAB.
Simply using bundle:update org.openhab.binding.zwave from the karaf console is not working for me.
The only thing I found to work is to explicitly provide the exact location of the jar in the bundle:update command. Like this.
openhab> list -s | grep zwave
227 │ Active │ 80 │ 2.x.0.old-date │ org.openhab.binding.zwave
openhab> bundle:update org.openhab.binding.zwave https://ci.openhab.org/job/openHAB2-Bundles/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/bindings/org.openhab.binding.zwave/target/org.openhab.binding.zwave-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
openhab> list -s | grep zwave
227 │ Active │ 80 │ 2.5.0.new-date │ org.openhab.binding.zwave
