Hi all,
I launched the example:"NatTableExamples.jnlp" of NatTable and wanted to play with it more in order to use it.
the problem is:
after I followed the instructions in the getting started site under "Developer" from the begining till the 'Set as Target Platform' part
and the project does not compile.

there are some "imports" missing i.e.:

import ca.odell.glazedlists.FilterList;
import ca.odell.glazedlists.matchers.CompositeMatcherEditor;
import ca.odell.glazedlists.EventList;
import ca.odell.glazedlists.GlazedLists;
import ca.odell.glazedlists.TreeList;
import ca.odell.glazedlists.TreeList.Node;

import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Cell;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.CellStyle;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Font;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Row;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Sheet;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Workbook;
import org.apache.poi.ss.util.CellRangeAddress;

import org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFPalette;
import org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook;

Where can I get the missing files?
is there a specific version needed?

is there a way to download the whole package of NatTable without the need for mvn to bring the dependencies?

am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,
Yossi Cohen

Hi and sorry for the late reply on this,

no there is no way for downloading the whole package for development. You need to use the mvn task for getting the needed third party libraries.

What is missing is the Glazedlists and the Apache POI bundles. You can get them via the mvn copy dependencies task described in the documentation.

The cause for this is, that for Glazedlists and Apache POI there are no OSGi packages in a p2 Update Site yet. We have addressed this a while ago and there is work done on that. Until this isn't solved, we are not able to change that.

The correct solution should be to point to the p2 Update Site for Glazedlists and Apache POI in our PDE target definition. Then we are able to remove the mvn copy dependencies task and then we are also able to provide a complete p2 Update Site for the NatTable.

So, there is work done on that, and AFAIK there is also some progress I heard of. So stay tuned for a clean solution.

Greez,
Dirk
