Re: [jdt-core-dev] org.eclipse.jdt.launcing.macosx & the Mac build

Hi folks,
So as part of the Mac build process we have grown a 2nd
org.eclipse.jdt.launching.* plugin. When we just had the J9
launching plugin for Photon we just made the user eat the pain and
download the launcher separately. I know that the folks at QNX
doing Photon development would love a better out of box experience.
Talking to a couple of people there seem to be a few ways to do this.
1) Fold the two launcers (j9 and macosx) into
org.eclipse.jdt.launching. This is assuming they are small, can
coexist on all platforms with no ill effects and have no UI
pressence.
2) Fess up to the fact that JDT has some platform dependant code and
morph/grow these launchers into fragments just like SWT does for
their platform code.
I will help, where I can, make either of these things happen but I
need the interested stake holders to decide on the best course of
action.

I prefer 2) since the MacOS X launcher isn't finished yet, isn't
small, and will probably get some UI.
So should I start converting it into a fragment?
Anything special to consider?
