Hi, This question has probably been asked a thousand times in a thousand variations, but I was wondering how I could use maven-bundle-plugin to create an eclipse library plug-ins in the case where I'm mainly importing external jarfiles and resources and aggregating them into a single package that can then be used as a resource for all the other plug-ins in the product.
Now it compiles and creates the manifest/library successfully, but eclipse refuses to resolve the plug-in. The main error I get in eclipse from the following POM file (in about a thousand variations) is "No available bundle exports package 'ch.ethz.ssh2'" <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd"> <!-- Project Properties --> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.orgz</groupId> <artifactId>com.orgz.library</artifactId> <version>0.0.1</version> <description>Library Plug-in</description> <name>com.orgz.library</name> <packaging>bundle</packaging> <!-- Orginization Information --> <organization> <!-- Orginization Name for the POM file.
