| [cdt-dev] Install problem on build from source |
All,
I'm having an issue in getting a CDT build from source to work. I would appreciate any help you can offer.
I'm working on the creation of an RPM for SUSE Linux of the CDT project. I currently have a .spec file that seems to be working properly, meaning, that it seems to build a source and binary RPM without errors. I can even do the install step without problems; however, if I run Eclipse and try to switch to the C/C++ perspective, I get an error stating, "Problems opening perpsective 'org.eclipse.cdt.ui.CPerspective'".
I am not sure if the problem is a build problem or an install problem. To install, after I build the CDT components in a separate location, I simply copy everything in the "features" and "plugins" directories over to the place where Eclipse was previously installed (via a separate RPM). This is the procedure we have used on other Eclipse RPMs to my understanding. Does that procedure seem ok?
Another thing I noticed, that might possibly be a problem, was that there were no .jar files in any of the directories I copied over. Many of them contained .class files in the "@dot" directory, but no .jar files.
