Export Product fails with cycle dep. error [message #792832]

Hi,

I am exporting my RCP application in eclipse 3.7 using the product's "Export Product" dialog. It stops immediately saying that there was a cycle dependency (but there isn't). However, it does work if I remove one particular project from the Package Explorer(or remove it).

...
de.myapp.common
de.myapp.common.test <-- Needs to be closed or removed
...

The test bundle is not part of the product or referenced anywhere. It seems to me that the Ant script gets a hick-up in this particular constellation. It does work again for other pairs of de.myapp.mybundle and de.myapp.mybundle.test.

I tried to enable debugging output in eclipse using cmd eclipse.exe -debug, but it doesn't show anything about the PDE build.

Any ideas why this happens? Thx a bunch

Definetely there is a cyclic dependency .. well it may not appear because we may try to see a direct dependency ,
But might be there is a chance that some plugin which you added as dependency creates this cyclic thing.

Ok, thanks. How can I find out why this happens? Can I activate debug output somehow?

The plugin is added to the workspace only. How can it affect the ant build script?

the 'Export --> Deployable plug-ins and fragments' has an option to ignore dependency cycles (see screenshot). Is this available for the product export?

Yes, it's available in both the Product's "Export Product" Wizard and the project's "Export deployable plugin.." wizard. It does not make a difference if I mark the checkbox or not.
index.php/fa/7143/0/

Eclipse seems to think here that the ..common bundle had a reference to ..filters.predicate which is wrong. However, the ..common.test bundle has such an import statement, but it is not used in the product.
