alvins Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Anybody successfully got this working. I am running sse3 emulation (itunes, msn works) but cannot get the latest eclipse (3.1) for osx working. Complains about some java error.

rohde Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Well there have been reports on some Java problems. Simple Java apps usually works but the more complex one usually fails.

alvins Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 I have been trying to compile from source but this require ant and that seems to have problems itself. So given up on that - playing around with binary. Eclipse exits with errorcode 10 - any ideas what that relates to? How about previous versions, are they worth trying?

alvins Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 After reinstalling osx and staying with the installed jdk (1.4.2) - the binary version of ant seems to work fine. Now I am compiling eclipse from source but need to recomple the swt and launcher libraries within. Trying to recompile the launcher for eclipse - I need the Carbon library files and .h files (c files refer to these eg. - #include <Carbon/Carbon.h>). I have downloaded Carbon from the apple dev site but don't know what to do with it (ie. where to put it and link it so 'cc' finds it when it tries to compile.

Wind Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I just compile eclipse 3.0.2 as Universal Binary.

blkblt Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 (Downloaded the Eclipse 3.0.2) It runs just fine, but when I try to launch a project, it says: Unable to use launch shortcut Reason: Plug-in org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui was unable to load class org.eclipse.jdt.internal.debug.ui.launcher.JavaApplicationLaunchShortcut Any ideas?

Could you write a short tutorial on how you went about compiling?

blkblt Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I have Eclipse 3.1 working almost perfectly (can write code, debug, etc.) I need to recompile libcore , but everything else works fine. Here's what I did: 1. I started with the Mac OS platform build. 2. I downloaded the SWT source and compiled it. 3. I inserted the 3 jnilib files the SWT build generated into the SWT jar file like this: zip -u org.eclipse.swt.carbon.macosx.ppc_3.1.0.jar libswt-* 4. Voila! This way I worked around not being able to compile the entire Eclipse source tree because of the issues with JDK 1.5.

alvins Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Ohh thats excellent. Couple of questions - - Could you write up a tutorial on the exactly how do do this (ie. compile the SWT source as I was trying to do this). - Could you upload the new SWT library so I can insert into my eclipse. - What are the issues with JDK 1.5 you face? If I try compile anything with JDK1.5 I get seg faults, bus errors etc. The include JDK 1.4.2 seems to work good.

blkblt Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 - Could you write up a tutorial on the exactly how do do this (ie. compile the SWT source as I was trying to do this). SWT was trivial to compile for me, I simply typed "sh build.sh" after unzipping it. I installed all the XCode stuff possible when installing the system. - Could you upload the new SWT library so I can insert into my eclipse. Give me a place to upload and I'd be happy to. I would upload the result of the SWT build which you could then insert into your JAR file. Note that I may have another libcore to upload soon as well. - What are the issues with JDK 1.5 you face? If I try compile anything with JDK1.5 I get seg faults, bus errors etc. The include JDK 1.4.2 seems to work good. The issue with compiling the Eclipse source is that it requires JDK 1.5 to compile it, because it uses some new methods for reflection that JDK 1.4 does not.

alvins Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 For the moment just email them to me alvins1982 at hotmail.com. The libcore - what is that? btw. Did you try and recompile the launcher? I am guessing you do not need to.

alvins Posted September 6, 2005 Author Share Posted September 6, 2005 Just playing around with it over the last couple of days. Plug-in development on eclipse seems to crash it constantly. Haven't tried simple java development but I think that works fine. At some point we should try and do a complete port - mac x86. If anybody knows anyone who is able to help us in doing this it would be create - ie. someone who has experience in create a build for a new architecture. Seems to be quite a number of steps before you can create your own binary. I will do some investigation into this over the next week.
