Error adding dependency org.eclipse.swt in URCap

Hi everyone,
I am trying to add the Software Toolkit Package as a dependency to my URCap in my pom file. I am adding the following:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>maven-eclipse-repo</id>
        <url>http://maven-eclipse.github.io/maven</url> 
    </repository>
</repositories>

<dependencies>
...
    <dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.swt</groupId>
        <artifactId>org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64</artifactId>
        <version>4.6.1</version> 
    </dependency>
...
</dependencies>

It compiles without errors, and seems to recognize the dependency. However, at run time when I try to instantiate an object of e.g. org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell, I get an error stating:

ERROR [Thread-1] 14:54:33 03/07/18: Error starting bundle.

I can’t seem to find other in here with the same problem. Does anyone have any clue as to what might be wrong?

My system specs:
Ubuntu 16.04, 64 bit
URCaps sdk-1.3.55
UR Offline Simulator - ursim-3.6.0.30512
Java: java-8-openjdk-amd64

Thanks in advance.
Best Regards, Thomas

You might have to add the package to the folder system of Eclipse. Home -> eclipse -> plugins

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that didn’t seem to work, but as I am building my URCap from a terminal with ‘mvn install -P ursim’, I wouldn’t suspect maven to look in my Eclipse folder for plugins.

It did however work to embed the dependency into the plugin by:

</Embed-Dependency>
    org.eclipse.swt*
</Embed-Dependency>

I am not exactly sure why though, and the documentation does not seem to offer any help here (or at least I can’t find it).

How did you do that? This is what I am trying to do all day with sqlite, but the amount of beaurocracy involved is enormous.

Did you edit pom.xml directly and just added <EmbedDependency>org.eclipse.swt*</EmbedDependency> under <instructions>?

Almost, I added <Embed-Dependency>org.eclipse.swt*</Embed-Dependency> under instructions - which for some reason isn’t shown in my earlier post (because I didn’t have an escape character in front, aha)

You need to add ticks - ` around it. It will show as code.

Yep, just figured it out :smile:

OMG, I missed - between the words in <Embed-Dependency>. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
