I upgraded my Windows box to 3.4 yesterday. I imported one of my very
simple plugins and I am seeing something weird. I get errors that nothing
org.eclipse can be found. So I check the build path and there is an entry
for Java JRE, there is no entry for Plug-in Dependencies. I made the
appropriate entries in the Dependencies tab of the plugin editor but that is
only reflected in the manifest. So I went and edited the .classpath file
directly and added a classpath entry for org.eclipse.pde.org etc. That
resolved the problem but seems rather hackish.
So... Any ideas about what I did wrong? Or is this some odd quirk of the
upgrade?
TIA, Ric

Quite likely. What you need in the .classpath is the PDE container,
something like this:
<classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.pde.core.requiredPlugins"/>
I can't tell from your original post if you have that (you mention adding "a
classpath entry for org.eclipse.pde.org etc.").
Also, the project needs to have a PDE nature; in <natures> in the .project
you should have something like:
<nature>org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature</nature>
But I'd suggest that rather than trying to hand-craft this stuff, now that
you've got the right Eclipse, just recreate the workspace from scratch.
Otherwise you're forever going to be running into gotchas and wondering if
it's because of the way you got there.
