Hello Gary,
In general, committers can only provide support on target hardware that 
they have access to. None of us has any openSolaris box, so all we can 
do is assist you in fixing the problems yourself. We will happily help 
you through your issues as much as we can, but don't expect us to fix 
and test the code for you since we don't have the target platforms 
available.
I assume that you are talking about
   https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=175293
[dstore] Processes do not work on Dstore-UNIX connection to Solaris
You'll notice that this bug has been marked as "helpwanted" for the

very reason I gave above for some time. We are willing to help end-users

fix the issue themselves, and we are willing to accept patches. But

since we don't have the solaris hardware, and since our employers don't 
use it, you have to understand that it is not our top priority.
Our official reference platforms are listed on
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?projectid=dsdp.tm#target_environments
and you'll see that solaris has never been a reference platform for
dstore. Which means we cannot routinely test it. But we can and will
still help our clients. Eclipse is a "Community" -- come be part of it!
Please use the mailing list, file bugs or comment on existing bugs,

and we will help you getting set up to start fixing things yourself.

I personally don't think the solaris dstore processes issue is a 
tremendously hard one to fix, provided one has the machine available... 
I just added some notes on the bug 175293 mentioned above.
For your 2nd issue, "can create a project on opensolaris with the 
eclipse sdk 3.4 but not with eclipse sdk 3.5.", it looks like you'll

want to file a new bug. Again, try to be as specific as you can.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Target%20Management

will file the bug against the right product.

Cheers,

Hi,
I posted this on eclipse.dsdp, but reading though the list, I noticed a 
message saying "this" is the real list.
I'm trying to use RSE with opensolaris 2009.06. I was actually trying to 
use PTP which has a dependency on RSE. I've been working with the 
PTP/CDT group for the past week isolating the issues, multiple installs, 
matrix-ing the packages, etc. I spent about 30hrs working though the 
integration issues.
With the aid of the very helpful PTP team, we were able to isolate my 
ptp problems down to RSE.
I can create a project on opensolaris with the eclipse sdk 3.4 but not 
with eclipse sdk 3.5. I also can't build on any versions of RSE or of 
the eclipse sdks. Additionally, if I attempt to browse the processes, it 
throws and exception.

Searching the posts, it seems like the solaris process bug is open and 
unfixed since Feb, 2007.

The real question is will opensolaris be supported by the RSE team ? or 
did I just waste of week of time ?
cheers

Hi,
I was at EclipseCon and went to a session about DSF (reverse debugging - 
really cool)
Now a couple of months later I'm in the position where I would like to add 
debug support to

our own IDE and I thought that DSF perhaps is the solution.
Here is the situation:

The debugger and compiler is propritary to my company and cannot produce any 
standard symbol formats (like ELF)

Besides the hard work is it possibile to use DSF to bridge between the 
Eclipse UI and the remote debugger?

Yes, definitely. In your case, you will need to define a new content 
type for your output format. If you want to be able to explore symbols 
etc. in the binary you will need to provide a binary parser as well.
However, you will find that also DSF tries to be as generic and flexible 
as possible, there are quite a few places where the GNU/GCC/GDB bias has 
snuck in.
We're working on a DSF integration with our compiler/debugger which has 
all sorts of non-GNU-ish behaviors, and its actually turning out pretty ok.

As you may be aware, the OSGi alliance has kicked off a project to
standardize eRCP. Since eRCP is already an existing project, the effort is
mostly around making an "official" spec of the eRCP components that are not
already part of standards, and producing an official test suite that ensures
compliance to the spec. The goal is to release the completed spec and TCK in
alignment with release of eRCP 1.3 this coming July.

This should not be a huge effort as most of the spec can already be derived
from existing JavaDoc and the bulk of the API tests are already in Eclipse.
The work is to fill in some missing specification text and test cases. The
standardization group may also influence what new function will be put into
eRCP 1.3.

Having eRCP be an official standard may ease its adoption with mobile
service providers who are looking to upgrade from the JME MIDP standard, but
are leary of going with a non standardized open source project.  Providing
the missing test cases will also directly help the Eclipse community by
providing better test coverage for core components. As always, we are
looking for a few good people to assist with this work so we can keep it on
schedule. Please let me know if you would like to help or can recommend
places to post this information where interested parties may see it.

            Thanks,
                  Mark

been updated: http://wiki.eclipse.org/DSDP/TM/Testing/3.1m5
Latest news: The "GSoC Team Synchronize" integration didn't make
it into this test build, but will be added for M5.
Thanks in advance for your testing TM 3.1m5!

Dear wider TM / RSE Community,
as you're probably aware, the upcoming M5 build of the Eclipse Galileo 
Train projects is what's going to go on a USB key for EclipseCon. The 
Target Management / RSE team therefore invites all interested parties to 
do a test pass on the TM 3.1m5 candidate
  on Monday, Feb. 1 2009
Why should you join?
- If you use TM as a dependency for your offering, you may want to
  check that the stuff you need works in m5
What can you do?
- Just try out the stuff that you'd like to work fine, and file
  a bug if it doesn't. We'll provide a bug reporting template
  for you, so it's super fast and easy to participate.
How long will it take you?
- If you've just got 1 hour for downloading, installing and trying
  it out that's a very valuable input for us already. Of course
  you're free to report enhancement requests as well!
Any additional information like the test candidate to download,
bug reporting template, and other information will be on
http://wiki.eclipse.org/DSDP/TM/Testing/3.1m5
For any other questions, please contact us on the TM mailing list:
https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/dsdp-tm-dev

Thanks that tutorial looks like it will be very Helpful! I have tried to 
setup a cross compiler for the Beagle board in Eclipse but I am having 
some trouble linking the recommended Code Sourcery ARM GNU Toolchain.
Below is a link to the Beagle Board forum about setting up a development 
environment in Eclipse.
http://groups.google.com/group/beagleboard/browse_thread/thread/ba02885ad0c514e5
For General info on the beagle board there is.
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoard
Any help on getting the environment setup would be great!
