RE: [orbit-dev] Finding source for orbit bundles in workspace

It's probably not worth it since we're so close to Eclipse 3.4 and things
are to be happening automagically at that point. Also, some folks would
update plugin.xml and some wouldn't so there would be inconsistency.

You can however attach the source.  It’s a bit of a pain but…

In theory for Orbit we could include the plugin.xml extension contributions
for the old source lookup mechanism…

Thoughts?

FYI, Eclipse has never supported the stance of being upwards compatible...
especially in the sense of using Eclipse 3.3 and pointing to a 3.4 target
platform.

If this has worked in the past with PDE, it hasn't been by design, but by
chance.

Share this knowledge with your friends :)

Hi, Mike,

AFAIK, you shouldn't need to do more.

Are you running Eclipse 3.4?  The new source format isn't recognized by
3.3.x.  Also, there may be problems in the source bundles of your problem
bundles.  Try comparing them to bundles for which you do see source (e.g.,
using BeyondCompare)

I thought that, once the binary and corresponding source plugins were
installed for a particular bundle (e.g. org.apache.commons.jxpath), I'd
need do nothing more and be able to see the source for that plugin in my
workspace (e.g. pressing F3 on a class name to bring up source for that
class). What else do I need to do 'cause that ain't workin'....
