Classpath change doesn't take effect [message #277551]

I'm working on an eclipse plugin these days. It was fine until I added
some features, changed the plugin.xml to add the new extensions and jar
files.

It's running well in runtime workbench. But after I export the zip file,
unzip it and restart the eclipse, I got a NoClassDefFoundError of a
class in one of the new jar files.

It looks like the classpath setting of old version plugin is cached
somewhere while the new code is picked up. I've tried to delete the
configuration directory, but it wasn't helpful.

What should I do to make my new plugin work?

Thanks in advance
Jiaqi

Start Eclipse using the -clean option to remove the cached plugin manifest
information

Thanks for quick reply, Darins. Unfortunately the error still exists.
Anything else I can try?

Thanks

Did you update the build.properties file to have that new jar exported
(thru the bin.includes)?

I didn't. This was the reason.
Now it works.

Thanks a lot
