Re: [tycho-user] Packaging and MANIFEST.MF
|
In Eclipse 2.1 and earlier the only dependency information was in the plugin.xml file. In Eclipse 3.0 they switched to OSGi and thus need a manifest file.
There is some backward compatible hooks which generate the manifest for pre-3.0 bundles which is what you're seeing here.
Your best bet is to build it in PDE, open up the generated jar and extract the manifest from it and place into the source.

Or does anyone has an idea how I could incorporate this project into a Tycho build? (For clarification I provide the URL to the bundle: https://github.com/cbeust/testng-eclipse)
