I kind of solved this issue. By default, equinox only grants access to the base java.* packages, not to javax.*. After googling for hours about that issue, I found a hint on that in another forum. It said, I should add the following line to my config.ini:
org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=* I did this and it does the job. Further reading indicates that this is not recommended as it could cause issues on other OSGi implementations/JVMs. Is it possible to explicitly make javax.* available in the config.ini? ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2686715
