hi kevin! yes. i use eclipse under ppc. it works pretty well actually. the only really annoying bug is that in the 2.1 release icons are displayed really weird..
i compiled eclipse and swt on ppc.. i found a little howto about it awhile ago.. -- _Compilation of libswt-gtk-xxxx.so and libswt-pi-gtk-xxxx.so : cd /usr/src/eclipse cd plugins/org.eclipse.swt.gtk ant -buildfile build.xml ws/gtk/swtsrc.zip ant -buildfile build.xml ws/gtk/swt-pisrc.zip cd ws/gtk unzip swtsrc.zip unzip swt-pisrc.zip Edit make_gtk.mak : IVE_HOME = /usr/local/jdk JAVA_JNI = $(IVE_HOME)/include GTKLIBS = `pkg-config --libs $(GTKTARGET)` Compile : sh build.sh Install : mv *.so /usr/src/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.swt.gtk/os/linux/x86/ _Compilation of the launcher : cd /usr/src/eclipse/plugins/platform-launcher/library/gtk csh build.csh copy the eclipse binary into the eclipse root -- i hope this works for you. it could be that the details are a bit different. cant think of it offhand right now.. but in rough structures should be like that.. let me know if it works for you.. ciao! florian On Wed, 2003-04-16 at 19:45, Kevin.Hendricks wrote: > Hi, > > I just found a wonderful article on IBM developerworks about using > the gnu gcj (java compiler)that comes with gcc with SWT-gtk or > SWT-motif > to build java gui style apps that can be compiled to complete native > code. > > I was wondering if anyone has used SWT or Eclipse (the Java IDE) under > PPC > Linux and if so have they tried integrating SWT and gcj with any > success? > > Hints or trick to get this to work welcomed. > > Thanks, > > Kevin > > ---- > Kevin B.
