[platform-swt-dev] Building SWT from Git from command line

Good morning,

I would like to contribute to the SWT project with bug fixes, but I'm having a bit of trouble finding documentation on how to build SWT without using eclipse.

Is there a simple way, from the command line, to build both the Java and native code from git on Linux? The instructions in the SWT FAQ appear to assume that you will be using eclipse to build the projects, which I am not.

The instructions here:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform-releng/Platform_Build

Require building the entire platform, which takes a considerable amount of time. Maybe I just haven't found the right combination of maven arguments to isolate the build to just the SWT projects.

Could anyone give me some pointers?

Thank you,
Sean
