Re: [tycho-user] How do I import a bundle-packaged project into Eclipse for debug? 
Sadly, PDE does not provide API to implement this, but there are two
workarounds

* If you have m2e/tycho integration installed, you can import your
"wrapper" bundles in Eclipse workspace and these bundle projects should
become available for other projects. This is what I usually do.

* Alternatively, you can copy these wrapper bundle to
<eclipse-install>/dropins folder. They should become available for other
workspace projects after eclipse restart.

I'm trying to use Maven and m2e to develop an RCP client that includes
several third-partly libraries. In the past, I've been able to use the
custom plugin builds and a local repository of third-party jars, but I
was hoping to do better with Maven.

As a minimal example, I've tried to package a recent Google Guava
release as a third-party OSGi component.  I create the component with
"bundle" packages, and the target/../BundleGuava..jar has all the
expected components.  The rest of the details are in the attached zip,
but the bundle instructions are:

       <plugin>
         <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
         <artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
         <version>2.5.3</version>
         <extensions>true</extensions>
         <configuration>
           <instructions>
             <Embed-Dependency>*</Embed-Dependency>
             <Export-Package>
               com.google.common.*
             </Export-Package>
             <_nouses>true</_nouses>
             <_removeheaders>
               Embed-Dependency,
               Embedded-Artifacts,
               Import-Package,
               Private-Package
             </_removeheaders>
           </instructions>
         </configuration>
       </plugin>

However, I cannot get the client plugin, GuavaUser, to properly accept
the new module.  I thought that the following dependency would make the
artifact from above available in Eclipse.

   <dependencies>
     <dependency>
       <groupId>org.demo.bundle</groupId>
       <artifactId>BundleGuava</artifactId>
       <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
     </dependency>
   </dependencies>

The Maven build appears to work fine, but Eclipse reports problems.  The
sample call for Joiner.on(", ").join("Hello", "world") turns into an
ClassNotFoundException.

I'd like to do most of my debugging in the Eclipse IDE environment, but
that would require successful launches from the Eclipse debugger.  What
is the best way to make the bundled third-party library available to the
Eclipse IDE.
