Re: [platform-releng-dev] How to get eclipse-SDK-3.2*-solaris-motif ?

[Kim Moir <Kim_Moir@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the confusing annotations
in the bug.

I initially thought there was still
support for solaris-motif-sparc in the source builds. Then I looked at
the build scripts, and I was wrong.  It had been removed from the
source builds as well.  So please reopen that bug with the request
that support be provided in the source builds.

Regarding your suggestions:
A.  The mirrors only store release
and stable builds for the platform, so this would not solve the problem.
B.  We use the same builds scripts
for integration and release builds.  In fact, we never know as we
approach a release, which will be _the_ build.

Thanks a lot for the answer, Kim.
It's good to know that there is somebody to talk to :-)

As a matter of fact, we - and our customers - need solaris-motif.
So I'm a little confused now.

The bug mentions that there is some way to assemble the PDE by using the
source build,
and the libraries from SWT, and no native builds are required.
But then it says that this is not possible. So what should I do?
Reopen the bug and ask for the build support in the source build?
If I do that, could you give clear instructions how we can assemble
the build ourselves?

And: If the build was just removed for the sake of download volume -
what about the following two options:
  a) Still build it and publish on download.eclipse.org, but add it
      to the mirror filter patterns, so that the mirrors
don't pick it up?
  b) Not build it for integration builds (providing the source build
only),
      but do build it for the final release?

Thanks again,
Martin
