Hello,
To test some developments in m2e-core, I was used to directly hack a .class into relevant jars. It seems that m2e jars are now signed. I tried removing the signature files, and the md5 from MANIFEST.MF, but m2e-core jar (i.e. the one I'm trying to hack) is not loading at all.
This process seems to work with Eclipse 2020-09 (and previous versions), but not anymore with Eclipse 2020-12.
I also tried replacing the jar in /plugins with a SNAPSHOT jar produced by a proper 'mvn clean verify' (which seems NOT to sign the jar), but without success:
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.eclipse.m2e.core.ui [252]
Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.m2e.core; bundle-version="[1.16.0,2.0.0)"

at org.eclipse.osgi.framework.eventmgr.EventManager.dispatchEvent(EventManager.java:234)
at org.eclipse.osgi.framework.eventmgr.EventManager$EventThread.run(EventManager.java:345)
The behavior is the same when I hacked a class, but kelt the signature files (
META-INF/*.RSA
,
META-INF/*.SF )
How can I easily test a small change over a class of m2e-core into a standard Eclipse install?
Thanks
