Exposing 3rd party jars from a plugin [message #126383]

I have a OSGi plugin that uses several 3rd party utility jars, which are
included in the Bundle-ClassPath of the plugin. I want dependent plugins
(specifically fragments) to be able to see the classes declared in those
jars. I added those packages to the Export-Package: section of the host
plugin, and Eclipse will see that they are exported, and add them to the
Import-Package of other plugins. However, if I try to use these exported
packages in code, it fails to build. What am I missing?

Thanks,
Boris

If the packages are available in your host plugin, your fragments
shouldn't need Import-Package ... they should see the "classpath space"
of the host plugin for free.
