[eclipse-dev] org.osgi.framework.Bundle#getResources(String) needs to th

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If your code does not call org.osgi.framework.Bundle#getResources(String)
then you can ignore this message.

For Eclipse 3.1 a new method "getResoures"
has been added org.osgi.framework.Bundle.  This method mirrors the
ClassLoader#getResources method.  The ClassLoader#getResources method
throws an IOException.  Currently the Bundle#getResources method does
not specify that it throws an IOException.  Before M6 the Bundle#getResoures
method will be changed to throw an IOException.  If you are calling
this method please be sure you can handle an IOException being thrown.

This method is usually used by clients
that want to create a ClassLoader object which wrappers a Bundle object.
 I have only found the following two clients of this method:

1) org.eclipse.ant.core
        /org.eclipse.ant.core/src/org/eclipse/ant/core/AntCorePreferences.java
        NO
CHANGE is required in AntCorePreferences.  The caller already throws
an IOException

2) org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime
        /org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime/src/org/eclipse/pde/internal/junit/runtime/RemotePluginTestRunner.java
        The
inner class BundleClassLoader needs to be updated to throw the IOException.
        I
opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=88700 against PDE
UI to fix this.

After PDE has updated their code I will
make the change to Bundle#getResources.
