Eclipse-build aims to ease the building of the Eclipse SDK for Linux distributions.
Contents
Prerequisites for building with eclipse-build
- ANT version 1.7.1 or newer
HOW-TO build Eclipse SDK with eclipse-build released tarballs
- Download the latest eclipse-build*.tar.gz
- Extract the downloaded eclipse-build*.tar.gz
- Download Eclipse SDK sources in the eclipse-build* directory. NOTE: Eclipse-build provides source tarball created from the same tag as the official releases but with additional sources needed for the build.
- Run ./build.sh
If the build finishes without error there will be a build/eclipse-$YOUR_BUILD_ID-fetched-src/installation directory containing a ready to use Eclipse SDK.
Eclipse-build is verified to work on x86, x86_64 and ppc architectures. Additionally, a ppc64 build is provided in Fedora with additional patches which are not migrated to eclipse-build yet. Eclipse-build has been successfully tested on Fedora 11 and Debian unstable.
HOW-TO build Eclipse SDK from checked out eclipse-build trunk (useful for development)
Debian Build Requirements
Incomplete list:
* openjdk-6-jdk * ant * build-essential * ...
NB: At the time of writing (2009-08-13), the "ant" in testing is too old to build eclipse.
Fedora Build Requirements
- list Fedora build requirements here'
To-do list
- See eclipse-build open bugs
- Add an item
- In Eclipse bugzilla, watch linux.packagingtools-inbox@eclipse.org if you want to be notified of new bugs
Planned items
- Add ant install target similar to 'make install' procedure
- Provision every feature separately so we can move them in dropins
- Add ability to build only given feature e.g org.eclipse.swt (Maybe)
