'Bundle Activator invalid' exceptions in I20040127 builds and later on OS X [message #188004]

Hi,
On OS X, I am getting the following exception when 3rd party plugins are
loaded in I20040127 (3.0 stream) builds and later:

!MESSAGE Plug-in com.teaminabox.eclipse.wiki was unable to load class
com.teaminabox.eclipse.wiki.editors.WikiEditor.
!STACK 0
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: The BundleActivator
com.teaminabox.eclipse.wiki.WikiPlugin is invalid
at
org.eclipse.osgi.framework.internal.core.Bundle.loadBundleAc tivator(Bundle.java:176)
at
org.eclipse.osgi.framework.internal.core.BundleContext.start (BundleContext.java:987)
at
org.eclipse.osgi.framework.internal.core.BundleHost.startWor ker(BundleHost.java:403)

(I used the wiki editor as an example - lots of others plugins have the
same problem.)

Before raising a bug I wanted to check if its simply a case of the
plugins needing updating.
The example plugins load properly so I suspect this is the case.

Has anyone else found this problem?

regards,

Channing

I installled the 20040130 build yesterday and got the same error, even when
running a sample project generate from the new project wizard (a sample
view).

Seems that the problem is in needing org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatiblity
instead of org.elipse.core.runtime. Try changing this in the plugin.xml in
your third-party plugin. This also needs to be changed in the new project
wizard...

Cheers,
Dave Carlson

Thanks Dave.

Is this a bug or just the new world of OSGi ?

It looks like the WikiPlugin class had a problem to start. It might be
missing a default constructor.

Plz us now what your findings ours.

I am still very new to the world of OSGi, so can't provide the official
answer to this. The 3.0 porting guide indicates that that the
org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility will be used during some interim
period, but I expect it will be deprecated for new plugin development.

I'll have a look but all the plugins I use which aren't default plugins
fail to load. Of course, I may just be unlucky and selected plugins that
are wrong :-)

No, I don't think you are just unlucky :-) Several plugins I developed
which ran on 3.0 M5 also failed to load on the new integration build.
Making the change mentioned earlier in this thread fixed the problem. I
looked at the plugin.xml file from several eclipse default plugins and saw
the same "compatibility" variation of the runtime library was used. It
appears to be required now.
