Classpath Question [message #667421]

Its been a couple of years since I worked on my project. I am trying to start it up again but am facing some errors. I don't know if I left it in this state, or if I am using the wrong IDE or what.

My project is a plugin project. Its a feature. It uses a library jar file. Presently, that jar file is only listed in the mainfest under Bundle-classpath. That is located on the Runtime tab of the manifest under classpath. (when using the manifest editor)

This causes the library to be unavailable to the compiling environment and references to classes in the jar file are errored. If I add the jar file to the project's Libraries under "Java Build Path", all is well.

The IDE seems to get everything it needs from the manifest, but for some reason it does not take this library from there. Do I have to add this library to the java build path, thus creating a .classpath file in my project, or is there something else I am missing?

Is this the best forum to ask this question?

This question is better suited in the PDE forum since PDE controls the classpath in the IDE for compiling code. I would try to remove and add the library again with the PDE manifest editor.
