 You might have to export your library, if you put it into another plugin. See the plugin.xml tabs.

I did it following way

  1. Use Import>File System to import the jar files into your plugin project, say in the /lib directory.
  2. Use "Add..." to add the jars to the classpath section of the plugin.xml>Runtime tab.
  3. Use "New..." to add "." library back (with no quotes, of course).
  4. make sure your binary build exports the new jar files on the plugin.xml>Build tab.
  5. save
  6. on the project, use context menu>PDE Tools>Update Classpath to correctly add the jars to the eclipse project classpath.

This worked for me first time and in the "lib" folder it created Three more folders which are "com", "META-INF", "sqlj" and one file name "T4XAIndbtPkg.SJPeofile().ser"

I dont know how these folders and files were created but it worked for me.

When I opened "com" folder I felt like one of my jar was extracted in that folder showing all the list of packages which were contained in the jar file.

But It is not working now. What may be reason?

I can't tell. When I did this way back, I got it working.
