"Unsatisfied version constraint" after adding bundle [message #481628]

After adding a bundle to the Require-Bundle section, all hell breaks loose
and none of the bundles that were being imported just fine are imported
anymore: In the manifest editor, every single Require-Bundle item has an
error marker that states "unsatisfied version constraint". Same thing if I
add an Import-Package from that bundle. Perhaps there is a problem with
the bundle, but how can I get PDE to give me a more useful error message?

I believe I'm also suffering from this problem ... no idea what the problem is. Works with 1 dependency, when I add another, all dependencies fail.

I've had this problem; my situation might not be exactly the same as yours, but this might give you some clues as to where to look...

We currently have a large 'libs' plugin that has many third-party JARs, and just exports every package from every JAR. Our other plugins have up to now depended on 'libs'.

We're now removing JARs from 'libs' and gradually replacing 'libs' with 'real' OSGi bundles.

I removed the Spring JAR from our 'libs' project, and added the corresponding OSGi bundles to the projects that used to get that JAR from the 'libs' project.

Spring depends on Commons Logging, and that was still an 'ordinary' JAR in 'libs' (i.e. not an OSGi bundle with a specific version number). I had to replace the Commons Logging JAR with a bundle to get rid of the errors.

So the errors are misleading for two reasons:

1. You get "Unsatisfied version constraint" errors for every dependency, although it's just one that has a problem.

2. It can actually find the bundle, it's just that it can't satisfy the dependencies for that bundle (e.g. in my case it could find org.springframework.beans, but couldn't work out if the right version of Commons Logging was available to allow org.springframework.beans to be used).

I seem to have run into the same problem.

Restarting and cleaning all projects a couple of times seems to get rid of it. However every time I reload my target platform the issue comes back. The problem is real difficult to narrow down because there is nothing in the logs and the PDE basically only says "Computer says no".

Also when I save a manifest its followed by a cpu spike which lasts for about 10 seconds during which eclipse becomes unusable.

This behaviour is the same on two different PC's / Eclipse installation.

Does anyone have a solution besides adding one bundle at a time to check if it causes trouble ?

For anyone who bumps into the same issue, it was caused by this 'bug': https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=298318

So basically you need to check all your bundles exporting packages in the javax namespace.
