eclipse:to-maven crashes if any plugin JAR lacks a Bundle-SymbolicName field in
its manifest
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MECLIPSE-363
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-363
Project: Maven 2.x Eclipse Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: Eclipse 3.3, Linux, Eclipse SODA DeviceKit and SAT SDKs
Reporter: Michael Hackett
Attachments: bundle-header-patch
The code to parse the manifest of plugin JARs assumes that the
Bundle-SymbolicName field will be present and throws an exception if there
isn't one. Perhaps this is an error in the plugin JAR if this field is missing
but I have found at least one sample code bundle that lacked the Bundle-*
fields (org.eclipse.soda.dk.rfid.write.plugin.samples_1.1.0.200710042240.jar,
part of the DeviceKit SDK).
I would say that, even if it the condition is illegal, the appropriate action
is to simply skip the JAR, not fail for the entire run. The attached patch
"looks before it leaps" with respect to the Bundle-SymbolicName field, which
allows it to continue processing without the problem JAR.
