[platform-swt-dev] F2 on Mac OS X build error resolved

[Pat Podenski <podenski@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Related to Andre's suggestion, I upgraded my OS X Developer Tools with the April 2002 update.

This cured the problem that I had before:

I upgraded to OS X Developer Tools April 2002 and then, after a Rebuild All, I was successful in getting F2 up and running. There was one item that I couldn't find though:

==> launchersrc.zip did not appear to be in the Motif distribution -- where do I look for this file? In any event, F2 did come up without this file.

I am noticing some problems now that weren't evident with M5 that may be related to F2's current state:

In the Java perspective, the .java tab titles for the respective Java files are all blank except for the first tab and that first title is truncated. I imagine that there could be some issues related to the OS X swt and/or F2 itself that are causing this, however I don't see this particular problem with F2 Eclipse running on Windows NT.

Again many thanks to Andre for bringing Eclipse to Mac OS X! An excellent effort indeed.
