I want to create an extension for org.eclipse.swt
as a fragment. I have created a bundle swt.extension
with the following MANIFEST.MF:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
Bundle-Name: Extension
Bundle-SymbolicName: swt.extension
Bundle-Version: 1.0.0.qualifier
Fragment-Host: org.eclipse.swt;bundle-version="3.102.0"
Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: JavaSE-1.7
Also, I have created an interface which extends an interface from SWT:
public interface IExtendedStyleTextContent extends org.eclipse.swt.custom.StyledTextContent {
}
When I build my project with tycho (mvn clean install
) the following error occurs:
1. ERROR in C:\<path>\tycho-fragment-to-fragment-dependency\swt.extension\src\org\example\tycho_example\IExtendedStyleTextContent.java (at line 3)
public interface IExtendedStyleTextContent extends org.eclipse.swt.custom.StyledTextContent {
^^^^^^^^^^^
org.eclipse cannot be resolved to a type
It seems that tycho resolves only org.eclipse.swt jar. This is a host bundle and it contains no classes. The actual implementation is in org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64 fragment bundle. And it looks like this bundle is not on classpath when tycho-compiler-plugin compiles the project.
Is this a bug of Tycho? Are their any workarounds?
I have put all sources on GitHub: https://github.com/orionll/tycho-fragment-to-fragment-dependency
I use maven 3.1.0
So, a workaround for this issue was found in mailing lists: http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/tycho-user/msg03277.html
To solve the issue one should add the following sections to POM and build.properties:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
<artifactId>target-platform-configuration</artifactId>
<version>${tycho-version}</version>
<configuration>
<dependency-resolution>
<extraRequirements>
<requirement>
<type>eclipse-plugin</type>
<id>org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64</id>
<versionRange>[3.0.0,4.0.0)</versionRange>
</requirement>
</extraRequirements>
</dependency-resolution>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
build.properties:
extra.. = platform:/fragment/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64
I have also updated the GitHub repository
