Hi,
I am developing a plugin that uses code in some other jar (b.jar in my
example). Here is what I got in my plugin directory:
plugin.xml
a.jar (code for my plugin, it depends on b.jar)
b.jar (a 3rd party jar)
In the plugin.xml I have the following:
<runtime>
<library name="a.jar">
<export name="*" />
</library>
<library name="b.jar">
<export name="*" />
<packages prefixes="org.xyz.foo" />
</library>
</runtime>
The plugin works fine in debugging environment (runtime workbench).
However, when I install it and use it, eclipse keeps complaining about not
able to find the classes in b.jar. Any step I missed?
Thanks.
David.

Try removing the package prefixes from b.jar. I've seen problems with
this if one jar has them and the other doesn't.
Also, are you sure all of the classes in b.jar are in package
org.xyz.foo, if they aren't then they won't be found.

Rich,
Thanks for you response. It is working fine for me now even though I am
not exactly sure what was the problem in the first place. Not sure if it
is about the multiple verions of elcipses I am switching back and forth or
I did not properly "uninstall the plugin". BTW, is there such a thing
called "uninstalling" plugin other than removing the directory and/or
replacing it with a newer version of the plugin?
Thanks.
David.

Rename plugin.xml to plugin.off (or similar)
