eclipse插件项目取决于java项目

Question

I have an eclipse plugin project which dependes on java project in my eclipse. usually what I did is export the project as jar and use it as-is in the plugin. but this requires manual work. can I have a reference from my plugin projct to a java project that will be both compile-time and run-time dependency ?
I saw a similar question , but not exactly the same.

Answer 1

I think, the closest thing to this is to create a jar file from the referenced project, and import it to the projects repository. But thats quite hard to manage for a currently developed project.

On the other hand, isn't it possible to simply convert the Java project into a plug-in permanently? If the other user does not use OSGi/Eclipse, he/she will see only a manifest/manifest.mf file (and possibly a plugin.xml) next to the java project specific stuff, so this would not disturb them, but would help you.
