Re: [jdt-dev] Problems on MacOSx

[Thomas Hallgren <thomas@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,
As it turns out, our headless configuration did not include the 
org.eclipse.jdt.launching.macosx bundle. But when we attempted to 
include it, we discovered a problem that is a blocker for us. This 
fragment introduces new dependencies to org.eclipse.ui and 
org.eclipse.jdt.ui. This effectively impedes all headless builds on 
MacOS X unless a major part of the IDE is included in the tool.

Any chance that this can be revised so that this fragment is split in 
two in Eclipse 3.5? The fragment has two packages, one of them 
apparently has no dependencies to the UI and I have a strong feeling 
that's the part that is needed to do the build.

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
