Re: [platform-ui-dev] RE: Compiling all of Eclipse from CVS snapshot
|
Dean,
Thanks for the information. I've already successfully built the C code
for SWT, using some information from someone on the SWT-Solaris team. I
will look at your source builds suggestion.
I am doing the profiling using Rational's Purify+, which "instruments"
the source code -- this is why I need the source. I'll take any more
questions I have to the mailing list you suggest.
Thanks again.

To do this you want to download a source build.
Links to source builds can be found on each drop page. For example.
The source build for the last integration build is at:
http://download.eclipse.org/downloads/drops/I-I20030115-200301151011/index.php
You can pick a flavour that includes the source and build scripts or
one that just has the build scripts and checks the source out of CVS
using anonymous FTP.
You can not just do your own CVS checkout since you need the build.xml
files. Most of these are generated by PDE-BUILD, an Eclipse plug-in.
These source builds do not build he C source for SWT or the launcher.
If you want to find out how to do that you should post a message to
the platform-swt-dev mailing list. If you have any more questions
about building Eclipse you can post a message to the
platform-releng-dev mailing and we would be glad to help.
As an aside, are you sure you really need to build form source to do
profiling work?
Cheers.
...Dean...
