Linux Tools Project/Eclipse Build
Eclipse-build aims at ease the building of the Eclipse SDK especially for Linux distributions.
Detailed TODO:
- Fix broken features build.xml caused by source features/plugins generation.
Workaround for now: Copy back the original after generation is done.
- Migrate plugins with custom build.xml files to customCallbacks.
- Check naming of org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty_1.1.0 with upstream. Version should
not be part of the name. According to Kim Moir there are 2 equino.http.jetty plugins used in different part of the build problem.
- Hook native compilation in the build.xml.
- Add a target to create an all-in-one tarball - srcIncluded zip, patches, missing bundles from srcIncluded and the build scripts
Overall PLAN:
- Create a working build with upstream srcIncluded build.
- Create a script to fetch sources from cvs.
- Fix to properly build with the fetched sources.
- Put all patches we have in Fedora srpm here so other distros can easily reuse them.
Others are welcome.
