Re: [platform-swt-dev] Building SWT -- Instructions?

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.

That's reasonable, but I was hoping that I could use the official build tools to help me stay in sync with your ongoing changes.  Keeping the stats file up-to-date, etc. is a major pain -- better to merge the true source rather than the generated content.  For the time being, I guess I'll stick with hand-merging.

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

Yep.  That's why I'm digging in for a lot of local merging.  Any idea when the roadmap for beyond 3.1 will be public?
