Not sure this is a new thing but I have the following effect with 6.3.0 RC1:
I have two bundles:
- `my.api.bundle` containing interface
- `my.impl.bundle` containing impl class
When in the bnd.bnd of `my.impl.bundle` I use:
- `my.api.bundle;version=snapshot`
- or `my.api.bundle;version=latest`
- or `my.api.bundle`
then the type-hierarchy in the my.api.bundle of the Service does **not** show the implementations.
But when I use
- `my.api.bundle;version=project`
then the impl class shows up as expected.
I just read in the release notes that there has been some work.
But maybe it is also related to [Version=project vs. version=latest](https://bnd.discourse.group/t/version-project-vs-version-latest/145) and I never noticed so far.
Is this expected? Or an eclipse issue?

Thanks for reporting the problem. This was also reported yesterday in [Type hierarchy not displayed · Issue #5250 · bndtools/bnd · GitHub](https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/issues/5250) which I am looking into.
