Description Markus Kuppe

Hi,

the class hierarchy of ID requires org.eclipse.core.runtime.IAdaptable thus all subclasses require this class in their classpath to have a consistent hierarchy.
Reexporting solves the problem that all subclassing bundles need to depend on either org.eclipse.equinox.common or org.eclipse.core.runtime.

The fix would be to define:

Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.equinox.common;visibility:=reexport,
 org.eclipse.equinox.registry

Regards
Markus

I don't think we should reexport stuff we don't own.

I agree with comment #1, I don't think we should reexport Equinox packages.

Resolving as worksforme.
