Description Zina Mostafia CLA 2010-06-01 13:26:13 EDT 
Build Identifier: 3.6

I have different jars in my target platform that export same package name but with different versions.
I am planning to add an import package to a bundle in my workspace using the Manifest editor.
When I select Add... and I start typing the package name, it list me just one, the lower version one in my target platform.

I would have expected that it should list all availble versions.

Reproducible: Always

Needs investigation in 4.3.

This is working in the add dialog in 4.3.  I created two projects in the workspace, each exporting package a.b.c with different versions.  On a third project I can import either package with a version constraint.

I did notice that using the content assist in the text editor only shows a.b.c once with no version information, so this could be improved.

For reference, the completion proposals are all built to parse out the name and throw away the version information.

Closing as WORKSFORME.  If the content assist proposals are causing problems feel free to reopen or create a new bug.
