I haven't seen any mention of differences between the procedures for 1.1 &
2.0 in the FAQ.
This is an excerpt from the FAQ, about building the SWT JNI libraries from
the download with source included:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
Building the SWT JNI libraries from the eclipse SDK download:
Download an Eclipse distribution from
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index.php.
Unzip the distribution. This will create a directory called eclipse. This
directory is subsequently referred to as ECLIPSE_HOME.
Change directory to
ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins/org.eclipse.platform.WS.source_X.X.X/src/org.eclipse.sw
t.WS_X.X.X/ws/WS (where WS is the name of the windowing system such as
win32, motif, gtk, photon, carbon).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
The directory specified doesn't exist.
ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins/org.eclipse.platform.linux.gtk.source exists, but it
has no subdirectory src.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
Unzip contained file swtsrc.zip, which will create a directory called
library.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
The directory 'library' exists already in
ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins/org.eclipse.swt/Eclipse SWT PI/gtk.
BTW I've successfully run eclipse, but it's *VERY* unstable. (E.g. I
haven't been able to define a new project outside ECLIPSE_HOME/workspace: it
crashes before the project is created.) Does the same hold for the
Linux/gtk/x86 version, or is this specific to Linux/gtk/ppc ?
I'll try building a Motif version as well, just to see whether that is any
more stable.
