I want to export a package from an embedded jar from my plugin. Like, MyProject/folder/myJarName.jar packages from my current plugin. For this I tried using apache felix and exported package, specified the location of the jar in bundle classpath. But, when I build my project, it manifest file complains that, package 'com.demoName.package' doesn't exist in this plugin. Is there any way to achieve this.
To export your project jar packages to the external plugins, need to do the following.
Add your jar file in the plugin.xml classpath section, that you can
find in the Runtime tab - This will make your jar available at run-time.
And in the Exported packages section, add the required packages
which you wanted to export- so that, other plugins can also access these packages.
Please find the below screenshot. I've added httclient.jar in my project lib folder and made it available to the run-time through Classpath.

I have a simple Hello World project in AnyPoint Studio. I have folder of additional files (a few jar files and some configuration files) I want to include with the project so they can get published to the cloud (CloudHub). How do I include these files into my project so when I publish my application the additional files are packaged with them.

Mule 4 projects are Maven based. You need to reference those jar files as Maven dependencies. You might need to install those projects in your local Maven repository. Search for Maven tutorials if needed. Ideally those JAR files are available in Maven repositories and you add only the dependency snippet in your pom.xml. If you are building yourself you can use mvn install command. If they are third party JAR files that you have the file only you have to use the mvn install but you need to define the coordinates (groupId, artifactId, version) yourself, which is not ideal and Maven won't be able to do automatic dependencies resolution for those JAR files. See this answer for details.
In your source project resource files should be in src/main/resources. At execution time you don't need to add a directory. If you add the file in a subdirectory of src/main/resources you need to use the subdirectory name only.
How do you change the classpath to a jar file or a different directory?
Go to File-> Project Structure-> Libraries and click green "+" to add the directory folder that has the JARs to CLASSPATH. Everything in that folder will be added to CLASSPATH. Update: It's 2018. It's a better idea to use a dependency manager like Maven and externalize your dependencies. Don't add JAR files to your project in a /lib folder anymore.
I am attempting to add an external jar to my module's build path. I've added the jar as a module dependency and as a library, and the compiler is still unable to find the jar. I'm using intelliJ 14.1. I have verified that the jar is intact and not corrupt.
JAR manifest: IntelliJ IDEA will pass a long classpath via a temporary classpath.jar. The original classpath is defined in the manifest file as a class-path attribute in classpath.jar . You will be able to preview the full command line if it was shortened using this method, not just the classpath of the temporary classpath.jar .
I am distributing a Java package via git for other people to use. I am currently supplying a jar file to go with the source. This way, the user only needs to clone the project once into Intellij IDEA. Projects using the package can then follow this procedure
Correct way to add external jars (lib/*.jar) to an IntelliJ IDEA project
to use the package.
This works, but distributing a jar does not feel nice security-wise. On the other hand, this discussion
IntelliJ IDEA - adding .java file to project dependencies
suggests that to use the source code, you need to copy it into your src folder.
Is there a way to distribute source code (java files) only so that if multiple projects use the same package
the package only needs to be downloaded once
the package can be kept up to date with git pull?
I would really recommend not include jar or any binaries in a Git repo and the best approach to keep these dependencies in a local Nexus repository and use maven or Gradle as your dependency management tool.
I found a working solution:
Supply an Ant build file with the package. The build file compiles classes and packages them into a jar file. The default target is building the jar, which depends on compiling the classes.
Provide users with instructions on how to set the given Ant build file as a build file in Intellij IDEA and build the default target.
Then instruct them to follow the steps in the first link above to add the jar as a dependency.
I would to like to add the dependent jars to the update site plugin project in Eclipse.
I followed
http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_create_an_update_site_%28site.xml%29%3F
but, it does not address the above issue. How to deal with the dependent jars with deploying plugin? Anybody please help with ideas.
Thanks
I'm going to assume you are wanting to add additional Jar files to your plugin. You can do this by simply putting the Jar files into the top level directory of your plugin, and in the Classpath portion of the Runtime tab in the Plugin Manifest Editor you can specify the Jar file. This will automatically add it to the build path as well.
Some people prefer to make an extra plugin that contains nothing but external Jar files; you add the Jar files to this extra plugin the same way and then just use the Dependencies tab in the Plugin Manifest Editor to make your original plugin dependent on the Jar plugin.
I have created a new Intellij project. But I can't use the third party jars in my project. I have the jars in a directory structure as follows:
repository/commons-logging/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
repository/commons-lang/commons-lang-2.1.jar
etc.
I want to add them just by pointing to the repository directory, but couldn't find any ways to add them.
But when I am using classes or API from that jars, the editor can't resolve the classes.
I have tried from Project Structure but can't configure it.
Go to File-> Project Structure-> Libraries and click green "+" to add the directory folder that has the JARs to CLASSPATH. Everything in that folder will be added to CLASSPATH.

If, as I just encountered, you happen to have a jar file listed in the Project Structures->Libraries that is not in your classpath, the correct answer can be found by following the link given by #CrazyCoder above: Look here http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/configuring-module-dependencies-and-libraries.html
This says that to add the jar file as a module dependency within the Project Structure dialog:
Open Project Structure
Select Modules, then click on the module for which you want the dependency
Choose the Dependencies tab
Click the '+' at the bottom of the page and choose the appropriate way to connect to the library file. If the jar file is already listed in Libraries, then select 'Library'.
On the Mac version I was getting the error when trying to run JSON-Clojure.json.clj, which is the script to export a database table to JSON. To get it to work I had to download the latest Clojure JAR from http://clojure.org/ and then right-click on PHPStorm app in the Finder and "Show Package Contents". Then go to Contents in there. Then open the lib folder, and see a bunch of .jar files. Copy the clojure-1.8.0.jar file from the unzipped archive I downloaded from clojure.org into the aforementioned lib folder inside the PHPStorm.app/Contents/lib. Restart the app. Now it freaking works.
EDIT: You also have to put the JSR-223 script engine into PHPStorm.app/Contents/lib. It can be built from https://github.com/ato/clojure-jsr223 or downloaded from https://www.dropbox.com/s/jg7s0c41t5ceu7o/clojure-jsr223-1.5.1.jar?dl=0 .
