Hello,

I created an RCP application that works perfectly when launched from
eclipse. I also created a product out of it that runs smoothly inside
eclipse. However, when the same product is run after being exported (using
the product export wizard) it doesn't display one of the views
(java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: wordview.views.MyView). In fact the jar
to which this View belongs added an extra dir to the view path:

bin/wordview/views/MyView

instead of

wordview/views/MyView

How to tune the paths of generated jars?

Thanks,

Kaiser

This problem is well known as far as i know.

Search the mailing list for "third party", "3rd party" or something like
this - you should find plenty of answers.

Regards,
Stefan

Thanks for your reply Stefan.

I had already heard about this 3rd party jars problems, but I don't know if
it is my case, since the view I'm "importing" is not part from 3rd party
jars, but from another plugin already included in the dependencies. Anyway,
the solutions " turn the jars into plugins " or " include the jars in a
plugin " don't seem to apply to me. Or do they ?

Your build.properties isn't right for some reason.

Generate a new plugin (like hello world, it doesn't matter) and compare
it's build.properties to your own.

re: 3rd party jars ... if you just have a dependancy on another plugin,
that's not a problem. I assume you added the dependancies in the
plugin.xml editor>Runtime tab?

If you've added anything to your build path through the Build
Path>Configure Build Path ... popup menu, that won't work.

Later,
