Hi, Peter!

Thanks for your time working on cool
feature patches!
Don't worry about generating the natives
- hand-hacked is fine for testing.
Just tell us which natives you need
when you submit the feature and your java code to Bugzilla, and we will
generate them with JNIGen when the patch goes in.

I assume you do realize that nothing
new is going in now until after 3.1 ships.

Thanks again!
Carolyn

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] Building SWT -- Instructions?

Hello all,

I'm working on some Mac OS X platform integration features.  I've
 
gotten things working fairly well by hacking the generated JNI C code  
directly, but this obviously isn't going to cut it for a patch  
submission.  Someone please point me at the documentation for the
SWT  
build process, including especially the JNIGenerator tool.  I've  
gotten as far as importing the dev.eclipse.org projects from CVS, but  
I have no idea what to edit or how to make the JNI natives magically  
appear.  (Or to generate the nice Jar files with working resource
 
bundles, for that matter.)

If one of the submitters would prefer to just add the two functions I  
need directly to CVS, that would work, too.  What I need (should show
 
up in internal/carbon/OS.java):

public static final native int AEGetParamDesc (int theAppleEvent, int  
theAEKeyword, int desiredType, AEDesc result);
public static final native int AEDisposeDesc(AEDesc fileListDesc);

Thanks much.  I promise you'll be getting some nice feature patches
 
for 3.1.x soon if I can work out the proper build process....
