Description Davy Meers

Build Identifier: 20110916-0149

When using "import package" to specify a dependency the build fails with a resolution error.

When building the same project but using "require bundle" instead the build succeeds.

I created a minimal example that shows the problem.
For this example i use an implicit target platform but the problem also occurs when using an explicit target platform file.

Reproducible: Always

p2 bug 360659?

We really need to fix the debug output - everything is a "resolution error"...

I think it is indeed that p2 bug.

Update: It is indeed that bug. By adding the attribute "core" to the import package that build succeeds too.



This bug can be closed.

This still is a Tycho problem (because Tycho includes p2), but if you are satisfied with the explanation, we could close this issue as "invalid". It's definately not "fixed".

As a follow-up: in the end adding the attribute was not a solution and i had to use require bundle.

I am satisfied with the explanation.
It would be useful if tycho could provide a more descriptive error message.
Do you want me to create a bug for that?

ps: The selection of Resolved / Fixed was by accident.

Yes, this would be useful, thanks!
