I have been trying to integrate an SVG export in my Eclipse RCP software, but I have a problem when running the code:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 0 2012-10-03 16:39:44.835
!MESSAGE Unhandled event loop exception
!STACK 0
java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: loader (instance of org/eclipse/osgi/internal/baseadaptor/DefaultClassLoader) previously initiated loading for a different type with name "org/w3c/dom/DOMImplementation"
at bob.ImageExportUtils.exportAWTasSVG(ImageExportUtils.java:51)
at bob.HeatMapView.widgetSelected(HeatMapView.java:692)
...
For running my software and have no problem with external jar files, I inserted all of them in a plugin bob.lib, created using the wizard "Plugin from jar files". This plugin is the only dependencies declared for my bob plugin (excepted of course the different org.eclipse.* plugin always needed)
I first thought that my problem come from the fact that bob.lib plugin contains different type of jar, and maybe two of them have both implemented org.w3c.dom.DOMImplementation, so a conflict is reached has the ClassLoader try to re-load an existing class. But when looking at this plugin and search through Navigate > Open Type, I found only one occurence of this class.
So it is definitely a ClassLoader problem. I admit that the concept of ClassLoader is for me totally virtual (I understand the concept but never go in the deep code). I found one day on a forum someone explaining that you can ask for a class to be loaded by a different ClassLoader than the rest of the project. But I cannot find it today.
So if you have a hint on my problem I would be pleased to hear it !
Thank you.
[Edit] The class org.w3c.dom.DOMImplementation comes from Batik jar (SVG manipulation).

For those who might be interested, I solved my problem by using another class.
Apprently it was not org.w3c.dom posing problem but org.apache.batik.dom which is loaded when using GenericDOMImplementation in the code:
DOMImplementation domImpl = GenericDOMImplementation.getDOMImplementation();
Document document = domImpl.createDocument(null, "svg", null);
Both package might use different ClassLoader
In fact, packages needed are now in the TargetPlatform apparently by default (Eclipse 4.2) :
org.apache.batik.dom
org.apache.batik.svggen
org.apache.batik.ext.awt
Using these, instead of Batik exported packages solves the problem.
So Batik has a special way of managing ClassLoader ? Is it even possible ?
Anyway it is working, I can do nice figures and that's the principal for me
