AW: [platform-swt-dev] How to get and build the source for SWT 3.1M7?

["Thomas Mauch" <thomas.mauch@xxxxxxx>]

I tried to follow your suggestions as cited below:

This part is a bit confusing and I hope that we can do something
better since it's a reasonable thing to want to do.  Eclipse builds are
done using PDE build, which uses the map files found in the
org.eclipse.releng plugin.  If you look in maps/swt.map you will see
which tags were used to check out for the most recent build.  The
org.eclipse.releng plugin is tagged for each integration build, so you
can go through its history to see which tags were used for each build.

I checked out the org.eclipse.releng with tag I20050513-1415 and found the
swt.map file below:
(By the way, how can I figure out the build number from a stable build's
release page when
I do not want to look at its address where the number is contained as I
assume:
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.1M7-200505131415/ind
ex.php)

I then fetched the version tagged v3135a for
org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86,
but when trying to fetch the version tagged v3135c of org.eclipse.swt, this
tag did not exist.
Which tag do I have to use for the org.eclipse.swt module?

Can you help again?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

  Ack!  I'll fix those links right away... :(

  This part is a bit confusing and I hope that we can do something
better since it's a reasonable thing to want to do.  Eclipse builds are
done using PDE build, which uses the map files found in the
org.eclipse.releng plugin.  If you look in maps/swt.map you will see
which tags were used to check out for the most recent build.  The
org.eclipse.releng plugin is tagged for each integration build, so you
can go through its history to see which tags were used for each build.

  This project in CVS only contains the .dll files anyway.  It has been
moved to org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86.

  This is a good suggestion.  I will change it on the page.

  Thanks a lot for posting!!! :)    Please let us know either here or in
bugzilla when things are busted.
