The type org.pentaho.metastore.api.IMetaStore cannot be resolved


i am trying to build a pentaho DI plugin in Eclipse. I have imported all the necessary jar files into the library.

enter image description here

But while coding it, i was facing this error:

The type org.pentaho.metastore.api.IMetaStore cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

I got some reference stuff like :

But i am not able to clearly understand this issue. Do i need to import some different jar ??
Please kindly help me in this !!!

Pentaho DI Version : 5.0.0 - GA OS : 64 Bit Windows


Solution

  • Yes you are missing (at the very least) pentaho-metastore-5.0.0.1.jar. Also you won't need kettle-jdbc-5.0.0.1, it's not actually a core Kettle module.
