Re: [cdt-dev] F1 CDT works under Linux but not Windows

[turnham@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Brian and All,

I've created a document that describes the steps to build/run/debug the CDT
inside Eclipse (as well as how to build the CDT from the command line).
The document is here ->
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/cdt-home/developer/build/developingCDT.html?cvsroot=Tools_Project
Please let me know if there are any problems with the document.  I think
I'll add some screenshots when I get some time.

Just to clarify Brian...the CDT does not build Eclipse itself.  It simply
builds against the Stable builds available on http://download.eclipse.org.

Hope that helps...

Jeff.

I forgot an important point when writing this email.  There's something
called "nightly" and "integration" builds on the eclipse web site.  Is
the formula as simple as "we use the latest integration builds?"

I think I confused myself with a previous email and what was available
on the web site at the time.  I believed the CDT team was working with a
version of Eclipse that I didn't have access to, but now that I think
about it, I may have just been mistaken.
