Hi Ben,

I tend to see this the other way around…. if you are using that
package then you should have an Import-Package statement for it. If
that causes problems for PDE then that's a bug in PDE, not in Equinox.

Neil

Hi All,

We're being affected by a difference between Equinox 3.6.2 and 3.7, and
can't quite work out whether it's caused by a bug fix, a bug being
introduced, or a change in the OSGi spec from 4.2 to 4.3.

Our code has been converted to use OSGi and runs purely on IBM JVMs, and as such has dependencies on several IBM-specific packages of the JRE - for example, com.ibm.CORBA.iiop. To ensure these are exported from the JRE by
the system bundle, we have added them to the
org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra property.

We have set osgi.java.profile.bootdelegation=override and
org.osgi.framework.bundle.parent=app.

The problem is that at Equinox 3.6.2, our bundle is able to load a class from com.ibm.CORBA.iiop without adding it to the Import-Package statement. However, at 3.7, this is not possible. Instead, an Import-Package statement
is required (which makes it tricky to compile in PDE...)

Many thanks for your help,
Ben
