Re: [equinox-dev] class not found in the same package

[Jeff McAffer <Jeff_McAffer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd suggest you try using the PDE manifest
clean up wizard as well. It should detect all the right imports and uses
required by the code in your bundle.

In the future look also for some help
from the PDE API tools.  These will be able to report on what exactly
your bundles consume from and provide to the outside world.  see (though
that plan is somewhat out of date)
        http://wiki.eclipse.org/PDE_UI_Incubator_ApiTools

Side note/hint:  When you get a
NoClassDefFoundError it generally means that there was a problem while
defining/verifying another class.  That is, you get ClassNotFoundException
if A cannot be found but a NoClassDefFoundError if A is found and cannot
be defined/verified.
