以编程方式在插件中设置java eclipse项目的JRE

Question

I Am trying to create eclipse projects programmatically for my plugin. I used this code to create the projects:

IWorkspaceRoot workspaceRoot = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot();
    IProject project = workspaceRoot.getProject(projectName);
    project.create(null);
    project.open(null);

    IProjectDescription description = project.getDescription();
    description.setNatureIds(new String[] { JavaCore.NATURE_ID });
    project.setDescription(description, null);

    IJavaProject javaProject = JavaCore.create(project); 

    IFolder binFolder = project.getFolder("bin");
    binFolder.create(false, true, null);
    javaProject.setOutputLocation(binFolder.getFullPath(), null);

    List<IClasspathEntry> entries = new ArrayList<IClasspathEntry>();

    IVMInstall vmInstall = JavaRuntime.getDefaultVMInstall();
    LibraryLocation[] locations = JavaRuntime.getLibraryLocations(vmInstall);
    for (LibraryLocation element : locations) {
        entries.add(JavaCore.newLibraryEntry(element.getSystemLibraryPath(), null, null));
    }

    javaProject.setRawClasspath(entries.toArray(new IClasspathEntry[entries.size()]), null);

    IFolder sourceFolder = project.getFolder("src");
    sourceFolder.create(false, true, null);

    IPackageFragmentRoot packageRoot = javaProject.getPackageFragmentRoot(sourceFolder);
    IClasspathEntry[] oldEntries = javaProject.getRawClasspath();
    IClasspathEntry[] newEntries = new IClasspathEntry[oldEntries.length + 1];
    System.arraycopy(oldEntries, 0, newEntries, 0, oldEntries.length);
    newEntries[oldEntries.length] = JavaCore.newSourceEntry(packageRoot.getPath());
    javaProject.setRawClasspath(newEntries, null);

But as it runs in an eclipse application the JRE system library is not set.

So how do you add the JRE programmatically to an project in an eclipse application?

Answer 1

entries.add(JavaRuntime.getDefaultJREContainerEntry());

Answer 2

Works for me.

IPath containerPath = new Path(JavaRuntime.JRE_CONTAINER);              
IVMInstall vmInstall = JavaRuntime.getDefaultVMInstall();
IPath vmPath = containerPath
    .append(vmInstall.getVMInstallType().getId())
    .append(vmInstall.getName());
IClasspathEntry jreEntry = JavaCore.newContainerEntry(vmPath);               

Answer 3

PreferenceConstants.getDefaultJRELibrary();

The default JRE of an Eclipse is stored in the preferences, so the call above should provide you with the Java Runtime Environment Library.

Answer 4

            IClasspathEntry[] jreClasspaths=org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PreferenceConstants.getDefaultJRELibrary();

        IClasspathEntry[] oldClasspathEntries=null;
        try{
            oldClasspathEntries=javaProject.getRawClasspath();
        }catch(JavaModelException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        Set<IClasspathEntry> newClasspathEntries=new HashSet<IClasspathEntry>();
        newClasspathEntries.addAll(Arrays.asList(jreClasspaths));
        newClasspathEntries.addAll(Arrays.asList(oldClasspathEntries));
        try{
            javaProject.setRawClasspath(newClasspathEntries.toArray(new IClasspathEntry[newClasspathEntries.size()]), monitor);
        }catch(JavaModelException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
