[platform-dev] Eclipse 3.2 and Solaris 9 GTK (was: Resolving GTK dependancy on Solaris)
|
Hi Matt,
For future reference, the eclipse.platform newsgroup is the proper
place to ask such questions. If you search that newsgroup for the
term "Solaris" you'll find some interesting posts. I'm cross-posting
my answer to the newsgroup and here:
If you want Solaris-Motif, just grab the eclipse-srcBuild-srcIncluded
and build it yourself. It's much simpler than you'd think since it
builds only the Java part (all natives are precompiled). Works even
on Solaris 7 for me.
If you want Solaris-GTK, it's officially supported on Solaris 10 only,
which (I think) has GTK libraries preinstalled. Inofficially, it should
also work on Solaris 9; for Solaris 9, you can get a GNOME package
right from Sun (package SUNWGtkr), it's version 2.1.0 but works well
for most people. Don't try the version from sunfreeware.com, it sucks
as I've heard :-)
If you're on Solaris 8, you'll be mostly on your own since I think
you'd have to recompile GTK yourself which is pretty hard as I've
heard.
Some reference for Eclipse 3.3 on Solaris, also has some
more information about GTK versions:
