Description Adam Schlegel CLA 2002-05-23 11:20:49 EDT
This bug is related to bug 17327.

It is possible for a fragment to add a dependancy to a plugin. This occurs when 
a fragment is created that has a <requires> tag in its fragment.xml. 

Jar files that are exported by dependancies that are added via a fragment are 
not listed on the classpath on the External Tools->Ant preferece page.

An example fragment.xml that demonstrates this behaviour is given below. This 
fragment.xml file is designed to add junit.jar to Eclipse Ant's classpath by 
adding the org.junit plugin as a dependancy to org.apache.ant.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<fragment
   id="org.eclipse.ant.optional.junit"
   name="Junit Fragment"
   version="1.1.0"
   plugin-id="org.apache.ant"
   plugin-version="1.4.1">
<requires>
   <import plugin="org.junit" optional="true"/>
</requires>
<runtime>
</runtime>
</fragment>

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
