Re: [platform-swt-dev] SWT.EMBEDDABLE on gtk is not reusable

[Silenio Quarti <Silenio_Quarti@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From tasks/build.xml, you need to run
(assuming you are on x86_64):

replace.32.to.64
build_gtk_linux_x86_64 -> to build
the C library after you add a native to OS.java  (the C code is auto
generate by the tools plugin).  You might have to change some of the
paths in the task.

The tasks in buildFragment.xml should
not be run directly.  You need to load the fragment you care about
(org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64) and run the tasks on the build.xml that
is in the root directory of the fragment. Note that you only need those
tasks if you are building a update JAR. It is not necessary at development
time.

If you help me with the below ones I can send a patch for that cvs
page :) It'd be great to have up-to-date info so that this first step
towards patch wouldnt be so hard. I also tried asking #eclipse @
freenode.net, but it'd seem that swt devs don't irc, at least on my
timezone.

now along with other tasks to build the native libraries, etc.

Aah, I couldn't read the ".../tasks/..", well. I'll reply to
this if I
can get it up and running, otherwise the questions below still stand.

I've got the jnigen installed ok, could you give me the most important
ant targets I need when I:
 - add new native function
 - want to develop on 64-bit linux-gtk?

The little I understood from buildFragment et al was that I might need
to configure some ant/build properties beforehand, but I do not have
them right now (still at work), nor could I immediatedly see what
values should which property get (or are those automatically
generated).

Could you shed some light on the required props and the relevant build
targets?

put the code you checkout from the eclipse repo into a local CVS to speed
up things, but you would not have the whole history.
