[jdt-dev] ECJ not finding java.lang.String etc

[Stefan Reich <stefan.reich.maker.of.eye@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The type java.lang.String cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class file

Any idea off the top of your head? Problem did not exist before ECJ upgrade (from 4.19). This is what I do:

Class ecjClass = Class.forName("org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.batch.Main");
Object main = newInstance(ecjClass, printWriter, printWriter, false);
call(main, "compile", new Object[]{args});
int errors = (Int) get(main, "globalErrorsCount");

The helper methods (newInstance, call, get) just invoke stuff by reflection in an obvious way.

I can supply the options passed to ecj if that is of concern?

Please advice

Thank you

Stefan Reich
