NoClassDefFoundError in eclipse plugin execution

I'm building eclipse plugin that uses JDT/AST. Building the plugin works fine, but when I tried to run the plugin. I go this error message. It complains that the ASTVisitor class is not found.

I checked the org.eclipse.jdt.core***.jar is in the build path with User Libraries.

What might be wrong? Do I need to setup execution path that points to jar files?

Solution

  • Eclipse plugins manage dependencies using the Manifest.MF file. Check in the dependencies tab of your Manifest.MF file that you have org.eclipse.jdt.core as a required plugin.
