Yes, we need to add such a feature. Having to select all required bundles one by one is really a pain.

There is much to be done in this area:

• Find and propose bundles that export packages imported by a bundle
  
• Find and propose that provide extensions for extension points defined by a bundle (Equinox-specific)
  
• Create a dependency graph or matrix for bundle dependencies.
  

Maybe there is a misunderstanding: I need this functionality for an ANT build file for building my plug-ins. And maintaining the bundle dependencies in the MANIFEST.MF as well as the build.xml seems double effort.

Hi Thomas, I'm currently collecting postponed feature requests. Could you elaborate a bit more on what you try to achieve with this feature? Is there some special formatting to be applied to the bundle list, so you can use it in ant? Maybe a direct ant integration can be done, just like the maven integration we have right now.

We've dropped RCP/OSGi and hence don't need this feature any more.

Supposed that you wouldn't have discontinued it, what was your use case? Maybe this feature is useful for others...

IIRC, we needed to get a list of all required plug-ins for building the application, but as I now know, this is not sufficient because of platform-dependent bundles.
