Hi
I am running Eclipse 2.1.1 on w2k.
I am developing an Eclipse Plugin. I can test it in the runtime
workbench... as long as I don't need anything not included in Eclipse.
Let me clumsily explain:
For access/manipulation to XML files I use JDOM. I can include the
jdom.jar in my Plugin Project, no problem (either with Properties>Build
Path>Add External JARs; or with importing the jar-file as File into the
project and then Properties>Build Path>Add External JARs. I can code
with classes provided by jdom.jar: import statements work, code assist
works, no error marks show up.
When I want to test the plugin in the runtime workbench, it seems that
there the classes from jdom.jar can't be found (I did some simple debug
tests: plugin code which uses jdom imports is just not executed).
Can anybody tell me how I need to correctly set up Eclipse/runtime
workbench so that it can handle "external" jar-files?
Thanks for your help, cheers,
Sascha

Hi Myron
Thanks for your help, it worked out.
1. I imported the jar into the Project folder
2. I included it with Properties>Java Build Path>ADD JARs... into the
project
3. I added it to the plugin.xml like this:
<runtime>
<library name="jdom.jar">
<export name="*"/>
</library>
</runtime>
Cheers, Sascha
