Re: [platform-swt-dev] Compiling swt libs on Solaris x86_64

[Ben Staniford <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Billy,

Thanks for this, you are quite correct we're talking about 10 or so files I think. 
Interestingly there are alot more files than this (in eclipse) that appear to contain 
arch references but I'm not sure it's nesesary to change them.  For example, the build.xml 
in almost every eclipse plugin have lines like: 

<pathelement path="../org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86/@dot"/>
<pathelement path="${build.result.folder}/../org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86/@dot"/>
				
I did orignally add references to the x86_64 swt plugin to all of these but now I'm not 
convinced the changes are needed.  If they are needed for something then I guess I'm talking
about changing alot more files.

Kind Regards,

Benj.
