Re: [cbi-dev] Building Eclipse under Ubuntu 13.04: Failure at org.eclips

Hey Hendrik,

you seem to be building native libraries, too. This may be a bit
difficult. Issues that I'm aware right now:

1. CBI build with natives is not capable of building SWT due to the
xulrunner issues. You've to choose: webkit or no native build. Currently
in Fedora I call:

pushd  eclipse.platform.swt.binaries/bundles
    find . -name build.xml -exec sed -i -e "s/make_xulrunner//g" {} \;
    find . -name build.xml -exec sed -i -e "s/make_mozilla//g" {} \;
    find . -name build.xml -exec sed -i -e "s/make_xpcominit//g" {} \;
popd 

to disable mozilla/xulrunner building.

2. To build native parts you'll need a whole bunch of libraries (Fedora
names are: make, gcc, gtk2-devel, nspr-devel, webkitgtk-devel,
mesa-libGL-devel, mesa-libGLU-devel, cairo - I'm sorry, I don't know
Ubuntu counterparts). To discover which are missing, you need to look
earlier in the build log, to find place where native build fails (like
gcc compilation error).

3. You need to run the build twice to get launchers built:
386377: Native launcher not built during first build
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=386377

If you put an entire log somewhere, I could take a glimpse.

HTH.
