Hello Karl,

Thank you for your answer and help.
I have opened a bug report for Equinox

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=224833

Betreff: Re: AW: obr resolving and system packages

Well, the idea is that the system bundle should list all the packages
it exports in its Export-Package header. That is what the spec
indicates and what is the case for all other bundles. A resolved
bundle exports the packages in its Export-Package header which one can
get from a call to getHeaders(). In case you create a bug report feel
free to post a reference here as well, then we can comment on the bug
as well :-)

regards,

Karl
