FWIW, the Eclipse Runtime bundle is pretty much of a legacy thing and we 
have been trying to get people off of it.  Unfortunately its a slow 
process.  People generally will not disrupt what has been working for them 
until their are usecases/users who need them to change.  I suggest that 
people interested in using EMF outside of Equinox make their needs/desires 
known to the EMF team.  In the vast majority of cases there is no need for 
people to use the Runtime bundle at all (through import-package or 
require-bundle).

Subject
[osgi-dev] Use of Require-Bundle in Eclipse plugins






Hello,
 
I am trying to run Apache Tuscany SDO under OSGi, and we are using the 
Apache Felix OSGi runtime. SDO has a dependency on EMF, and hence we need 
to install the EMF bundles in OSGi. Unfortunately the bundle manifest 
entries of the EMF jars use Require-Bundle of org.eclipse.core.runtime, 
which in turn requires Equinox. Since I would like to use the EMF classes 
under Felix  (as well as Equinox), I would like to find some way of 
running EMF jars under OSGi without requiring Eclipse. 
 
There is a thread on the EMF mailing list (
http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/article.php?id=29582&group=eclipse.tools.emf#29582
 
) related to this. Since there are other projects which would also benefit 
from a pure-OSGi solution, this may be a better place to discuss this 
issue.
 



Thank you...

Regards,

Rajini _______________________________________________
