Problem with Jar wrapper [message #265686] Fri, 06 August 2004 06:38 Go to next message

Hello,

I am developing a plug-in for Eclipse and i have the following problem.
My plug-in uses the classes of an external jar so ..

-> for eclipse 2.1

I build a jar wrapper plugin which basically just contains the external
jar file.
The build properties file is:

bin.includes = plugin.xml,\
*.jar,\
lib.jar,\
libsrc.zip

The plugin.xml file is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plugin
id="**************"
name="***********"
version="2.0.1"
provider-name="******">

<runtime>
<library name="lib.jar">
<export name="*"/>
</library>
</runtime>

</plugin>


In the 'Runtime Information' i have clicked the 'Export the Entire
Library' button too.
I then export it as a plugin, put it in the eclipse plugins directory and
i restart eclipse.
Afterwards when i try to use the libraries of this jar at MY plugin it
uses them normally.

--> for Eclipse 3.0

I use the same jar wrapper to load the external jar as a plugin for
eclipse 3.0
But this time my plugin doesn't see the classes of the library.(it throws
a ClassNotFoundDefinition exception).
The build.properties file and the plugin.xml file are exactly the same.
And concerning my plugin, i just import the code to eclipse 3.0, run the
'PDE tools-> Migrate to 3.0 ' action and nothing else.
And it seems strange to me because the same thing works in 2.1 version but
not in 3.0.Have i missed something?

Thanks for your time,

Antony
