Re: [eclipse-dev] Eclipse for Solaris on x86
|
Great question!
If you need Eclipse on Solaris x86... the Sun team provides a package
but it has the limitation of all Eclipse instances distributed by
distro providers. There is no substitute for downloading a build from
the Eclipse Foundation.
Another option is to use the scripts from the solipse project to build
your own Eclipse distro. It is relatively straightforward and quick to
accomplish.
http://code.google.com/p/solipse/
THE solution is to take the functionality of the scripts in solipse
and translate them into the build process of Eclipse OR to provide the
binary directly... You could help out Tim Meyer in his efforts to so.
You could also show your support by voting for
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=84344
Hope the above helps.
Happy Hacking
