Hi,



I have written a plugin that uses some resources on runtime. These
resources are bundled within the plugin jar itself.

As some of these resources were missing at the actual runtime, I did some
investigation and found that resources from my plugin jar has been copied
to a RAD specific folder at location "C:Program
FilesIBMSDPconfigurationorg.eclipse.osgibundles"
Also, the resources are not complete. That is, this folder has copied only
a few resources from my plugin, not all that I want.

This causes an inconsistent behaviour of my plugin.

Does anyone know what the underlying problem can be ??

Hi Shilpa,
Eclipse uses the configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles area to cache
plug-in contents such as JARs or OS libraries, that normally cannot be
accessed from JAR - e.g. JAR in JAR, or DLL in JAR. Only contents of
Plug-in classpath are extracted and it's all up-to plug-in developer
configuration.

Eclipse also transparently handles access to resources in both locations.

Similar problems are usually caused by incorrect access to resources in
plug-in, for example using classloader instead of Bundle.getEntry() to
load resources.
