Re: [tycho-user] Target resolution and Import-Package

["Oberlies, Tobias" <tobias.oberlies@xxxxxxx>]

So org.eclipse.ui.dialogs is a split package. In this case, the recommendation is to use Require-Bundle instead. OSGi can handle imports on split packages correctly, but p2 doesn’t [1], so the recommendation in the Eclipse context is to avoid them.

Subject: [tycho-user] Target resolution and Import-Package

 

Hi everyone,

 

I try to build a plugin with the imported package "org.eclipse.ui.dialogs", but the build fails by stating:

 

 Resolution errors:

   Bundle plugin.b - Missing Constraint: Import-Package: org.eclipse.ui.dialogs; version="0.0.0"

 

My first reaction was to check if one of the plugins of my target platform export this package.

I find out that both "org.eclipse.ui.ide" and "org.eclipse.ui.workbench" do so.

 

In the build log i can read something like "RESOLVED org.eclipse.ui.workbench ...", but the resolution of "org.eclipse.ui.dialogs" still fails.

 

Any idea on how go around this ?

 

I attached a sample to this mail demonstrating the issue.

 

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Herve,
