Description Wassim Melhem CLA 2004-05-27 18:44:17 EDT 
The <packages> element in the following snippet is meaningless and unused in 
the 3.0 runtime.  It ought to be removed from the plugin.xml

<runtime>
  <library name="jdtcore.jar">  
     <export name="*"/>
     <packages prefixes="org.eclipse.jdt.core,org.eclipse.jdt.internal"/>
  </library> 
</runtime>

Isn't it used to speed up classloading ?
Comment 2 Wassim Melhem CLA 2004-05-28 10:28:10 EDT 
That used to be the case in the old 2.1 runtime.  But the new OSGi runtime 
does not use it.
