Hi

I'm just getting started with Xcore. Unfortunately, when I create a new Xcore project, an invalid MANIFEST.mf file is created with the error "Bundle 'org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xcore.lib' cannot be resolved".

I have tried to find a solution, e.g. by looking at https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/783003/

but their solution seems to be to remove the dependency because they don't need it. I do need it.

What could be wrong? Can I edit my target platform somehow to resolve this?

Kind regards

Simon

If you checked that it's not present in your target platform? Is your target platform just your running IDE itself? If Xcore is installed in the IDE then I expect that library to be present as well in the IDE installation and in the target platform derived from that...

Hi Ed. Thank you for the reply. Currently, I had a custom target platform configured (actually, just the default target platform that is generated by a new (Maven based) Xtext project). Based on your suggestions, I did some more testing, and found out that when I just use the default target platform of the IDE itself, Xcore seems to work fine.

Is it possible to add the Xcore lib to the custom target platform of my Xtext project? Which location should I add?

Kind regards

Simon
