[tycho-user] javax.persistence class cannot be resolved - It is indirect

[Jay Jay Billings <jayjaybillings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Everyone,

I get the error below when trying to use EclipseLink in an RCP application with Tycho 0.14 -OR- Tycho 0.13. It is resolved by adding javax.persistence to the imported package list of all of my bundles, even those that do not explicitly use it.

I think this is a regression of this bug:

http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/tycho-user/msg00030.html

The DataComponent class mentioned below is annotated with JPA annotations and it is class that is used by almost all of the other bundles. I would expect the dependency to be resolved transitively. 

Is there a way to fix this in Tycho?

Jay
