Re: [linux-distros-dev] Problem building eclipse with JDK1.4 support

Hi. I'm an Arch Linux user and Java developer, and I assist one of the
Arch package maintainers with the building and maintenance of the
Eclipse package.
I've recently run into a problem when we tried to upgrade our Eclipse
package from 3.2 to 3.3.1. It seems the "java5home" argument has been
removed from the build scripts, and as a result I'm no longer able to
build Eclipse with proper JDK1.4 support. See these bugs for more
details on the issue:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=206479
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=153087
Neither the Eclipse JUnit team (the problem exhibits itself as a JUnit
bug) nor the Eclipse build team has been able to answer our questions
and show us how we can get our package properly built to support JDK1.4.
Can anyone here offer some assistance?
TIA,
DR
Hmmmm .... I'm still stuck here. Looks like none of the distro
packagers I spoke with support JDK 1.4 anymore. And the Eclipse devs
haven't had any useful responses to my bug report.
Is this destined to be a completely unsolvable problem? That'd be a
shame, since it's obviously a problem that's *been* solved by someone.
Thanks,
DR
