Created attachment 240404 [details] Patch for building 64-bit binaries for Solaris/x86 Eclipse 4.4M5 for Solaris/x86 doesn't work using the release candidate of the upcoming Java 8 as default JVM. The reason is quite simple: Build 128 and 129 from https://jdk8.java.net/download.html exist only as 64-bit binaries; the executable launcher and the SWT libraries are 32-bit only. Attached is a patch for the build scripts so that I'm able to build native 64-bit libraries of SWT on my Solaris 11.1 machine. The Mozilla libraries had to be commented out because they exist only as 32-bit. Gnome support is also actually not possible because at least Solaris 11(.1) doesn't contain libgnome-2.so and libgnomeui-2.so as 64-bit-binaries for whatever reason.
Besides the project eclipse.platform.swt I also checked out eclipse.platform.swt.binaries. Apply the following patch to the main pom.xml: diff --git a/pom.xml b/pom.xml index a225256..4c8e792 100644 --- a/pom.xml +++ b/pom.xml @@ -57,6 +57,7 @@ <module>bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64</module> <module>bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.sparc</module> <module>bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86</module> + <module>bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86_64</module> <module>bundles/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86</module> <module>bundles/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64</module> </modules> In the bundles subdirectory create a copy of the org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86 directory: %> cd bundles %> cp -pr org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86 org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86_64 %> cd org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86_64 Apply the second patch that basically replaces references to "x86" with "x86_64" and additionally removes the "make_mozilla" target from the build.xml.

Created attachment 246080 [details] patch for eclipse.platform.swt to allow for compiling SWT on Solaris x86_64 This patch is made with "git diff" and contains the changes I made to allow for compiling SWT on Solaris x86_64 Source code branch: R4_4_maintenance
Created attachment 246081 [details] Makefile patch for Solaris x86_64 Small changes for the Makefile so that the shared library compiles successfully on Solaris x86_64 Source code branch: R4_4_maintenance
Created attachment 246082 [details] patch for eclipse.platform.swt.binaries to allow for compiling SWT on Solaris x86_64 This patch replace the string "x86" with "x86_64" in the created bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.solaris.x86_64 directory Source code branch: R4_4_maintenance
Created attachment 246083 [details] Shell script to apply the patches to eclipse.platform.swt and eclipse.platform.swt.binaries This shell applies the patches to the submodules eclipse.platform.swt and eclipse.platform.swt.binaries so that native Solaris x86_64 binaries can be compiled. After that, it executes Ant to build the SWT libraries for Solaris x86_64. Hint: To execute Ant I have to use Java 7. With Java 8 I'm getting a javax.script.ScriptException error right at the beginning: Buildfile: /home/h2841/git/eclipse/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator/eclipse.platform.swt/bundles/org.eclipse.swt/buildSWT.xml init_fragment: build_libraries: copy.library.src: BUILD FAILED /home/h2841/git/eclipse/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator/eclipse.platform.swt/bundles/org.eclipse.swt/buildSWT.xml:962: The following error occurred while executing this line: /home/h2841/git/eclipse/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator/eclipse.platform.swt/bundles/org.eclipse.swt/buildSWT.xml:934: javax.script.ScriptException: ReferenceError: "importClass" is not defined in <eval> at line number 3 at jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.NashornScriptEngine.throwAsScriptException(NashornScriptEngine.java:564) at jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.NashornScriptEngine.evalImpl(NashornScriptEngine.java:548) at jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.NashornScriptEngine.evalImpl(NashornScriptEngine.java:528) at jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.NashornScriptEngine.evalImpl(NashornScriptEngine.java:524) (...)
To apply the script successfully, the patches and the script itself are assumed to reside in the same directory. Apart from executing the script, there's nothing else to do. The patches themselves were made against the R4_4_maintenance branch.
Created attachment 246123 [details] patch for eclipse.platform.swt.binaries to allow for compiling SWT on Solaris x86_64 (master branch) This patch is basically the same as the one for eclipse.platform.swt.binaries. The only difference is that the referenced plugin/bundle versions were changed from 3.103.1 (branch) to 3.104.0 (master branch), i.e. the original one cannot be fully applied to the master branch. To have the script use this patch, simply omit the "master-" prefix from the file name, i.e. save it to disc as "eclipse.platform.swt.binaries.patch".

I've started working on this item but won't be able to complete it in time for M3, planning for early M4...

Unfortunately couldn't make it in M5 as well, should definitely be done in M6 though.
This work is close to completion but there are a few more native builds that need to be completed before we can have a full eclipse build, so moving to M7.
Pushed the Solaris 64-bit fragment with the new binaries via http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.binaries.git/commit/?id=3d499347432c9bb901ede983332615a0e4e94b76 Pushed the build script changes via http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/commit/?id=4f17b2bbec9854dd696c87c3ee0542682d2198d8
Doesn't Solaris come with Gtk 3.x ? It would be nice to get it started with GTK 3 directly as GTK 2 is in maintenance mode thus adding new port on top of it doesn't make much sense.

AFAICS there are no pre-built GTK3 libraries available for Solaris, they need to be compiled from source and I don't think any eclipse users would be interested in doing that, so we'll have to stick to GTK2 for now. Resolving the bug as there is nothing more to be done here.
