RE: [platform-releng-dev] Building Eclipse from CVS/Sourcebuilds

Hello Valentin,

every Eclipse Platform drop is also made available as a "source build",
together with instructions. I believe this is what you should use.
For instance,

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.2.2-200702121330
/index.php
Get "eclipse-sourceBuild-srcIncluded-3.2.2.zip" and read the
instructions at
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.2.2-200702121330
/srcIncludedBuildInstructions.html

Cheers,
