[Solved] Eclipse e4 - No bundle loaded after exporting to exe [message #1097791]

Hello,

I'm creating my application using Eclipse Juno.
In eclipse everything works well. I have my 6 or 7 bundle interacting correctly with each other within a custom eclipse e4 application.

I tried to export the main application as an exe file.
The exe file is generated, I can run it, but the problem is :
I only have the main application. My bundles (weither they are contributing to the UI or not) doesn't start.

So I went and look inside the plugins folder of the exported app. I does not contain my custom bundle. I tried to manually copy them inside the directory, but no better.
Should I modify the config.ini in the configuration folder ?

Is there any trick to export those in eclipse.
Please note, that I don't want to add these bundles in the required-bundle because they definitely are not required.

Any advice ?
Thanks

How did you build your product?

Hello,

I used the features in eclipse. Exporting using the product file of my main application (export wizard if I recall the name correctly).

Have you added your custom bundle to the product? Have you validated
your product configuration?

I'm not sure what you mean.
- My bundles are listed in the run configuration.
- They are not in the product dependencies, since I can't make them required.

Everything goes well in eclipse, not when exported... I can't see the eclipse custom parts or menu...
The customs bundles are listed in my config.ini, and present in the plugins directory.
There is no log file in the workspace directory...
Is there any way to add them as optional plugins or something ?

thanks

Ok I'm moving forward. I just realize that there is 2 buttons in the product dependencies "Add" and "Add required"... It seems to be working now.

I'm still having some ClassNotFound issues. I probably have to export bin folder in the build

Ok... adding the bin to the export int the build.properties didn't solve the issue. Any idea ?

My fragments are loaded properly because I can see the new tabs in the Partstack.
I also checked by unzipping the Jar file which was giving the ClassNotFound exception, and the class is inside.

Have you exported into a completly empty folder?
Does it work when you start from the IDE?

Yes, I exported to a completely empty folder.
Evertyhing works well in the IDE.

My plugin has the option "Activate this plug-in when one of its classes is loaded" selected. So I'm not sure why it doesn't work...

Upper vs lower case if you are on win32? In the IDE stuff is loaded from
the filesystem and freaking windows has not upper/lowercase support
whereas when loading from a jar upper/lower matter.

you can also launch with -console -noexit and see what you can find out
at the OSGi-Console.

I think ANT on windows has also problems with whitespaces, either in the
eclipse path or in the workspace path

Hi,

Just to you know I found the solution.

Every project for my bundles had 2 separates source folder : src and ui.
At export, src was exported, but not ui. That why I had the java.lang.ClassNotFoundException.

To solve this, I had to add the following entry in the build.properties :

source.. = src/,\
           ui/

And it now works great.
