Re: [equinox-dev] bundle-classpath and adaptor.mf

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The System Bundle manifest is now located
at /META-INF/MANIFEST.MF in the project org.eclipse.osgi.  This file
defines all the bundle meta data for the System Bundle including Provide-Package,
Export-Package and Export-Service manifest headers.  A FrameworkAdaptor
has the ablity to add entries to the Provide-Package, Export-Package and
Export-Service manifest headers.  This is done by the Default and
Eclipse adaptors by the ADAPTOR.MF file.

This is pretty much the same as it was
before.  What has changed is that the System Bundle manifest has been
moved out of core.jar and into the actual project org.eclipse.osg to make
this project look more like a real plugin.  The ADAPTOR.MF has been
moved into the same package as the Adaptor class  to extend the contents
of the System Bundle's manifest file (so that means it is located at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.ADAPTOR.MF).
 The content of this file have not changed.  I do not think it
has ever defined the Bundle-ClassPath of the System Bundle.  The only
place I know this is defined is in the plugin.xml file of org.eclipse.osgi
and in eclipse.properties.  I think the startup.jar code may use the
eclipse.properties file to find out what jars to put on the classpath to
start OSGi or it may be hardcoded.

Hi, 

In the previous version of the adaptor, the bundle-classpath was specified
in the adaptor.mf, where is it specified now?
