Description Tomas Znamenacek

The name of the detected JRE is set to ".." and the JRE System libraries list,
in the installed JRE page of Preferences dialog, shows only a few JAR files from
<JRE>/lib/ext directory.

The result is that NO java code can be compiled becase the java.lang.Object can
not be resolved.

These problems didn't exist in previous Eclipse 3 stream builds.

My system is SuSE Linux 8.2 with IBM Java2 141.

JRE container belongs to debug

Which build does this problem exist on? What VM are you using to launch 
Eclipse?

Comment 3 Darin Wright

I have noticed that the "launchingsupport.jar" is missing from the build. This 
could explain the problem.

Sonia, a jar is missing from the "org.eclipse.jdt.launching" plug-in. 
Specifically "lib\launchingsupport.jar". I think this is due to a missing line 
in our "build.properties". I have appended "lib/*.jar" to the "bin.includes" 
section. Do you agree that this is the source of the problem?

bin.includes = plugin.xml,\
               about.html,\
               plugin.properties,\
               java.policy.applet,\
               *.jar,\
               lib/*.jar

Yes I agree.

Fixed build XML. Attaching a patch for interested parties (a replacement for 
the "org.eclipse.jdt.launching" plug-in).
