I found an easy way to build eclipse on solaris x86, as followed:<br />
<br />
$ JAVA_HOME=/usr/j2se; export JAVA_HOME<br />
$ ANT_HOME=/home/compl/sfw/apache-ant-1.6.5; export ANT_HOME<br />
$ PATH=$ANT_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH<br />
$ mkdir -p ~/farm/eclipse-src<br />
$ cd ~/farm<br />
$ vi regexrename<br />
-----start create script regexrename-----<br />
-enter the following content:<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
echo Renaming $1 to `echo $1 | sed $2`<br />
mv "$1" "`echo $1 | sed $2`"<br />
-save and quit vi<br />
-----end create script regexrename-----<br />
$ chmod +x regexrename<br />
$ vi regexreplace<br />
-----start create script regexreplace-----<br />
-enter the following content:<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
echo Replacing file $1...<br />
mv "$1" "$1.replaced"<br />
sed "$2" "$1.replaced" > "$1"<br />
-save and quit vi<br />
-----end create script regexreplace-----<br />
$ chmod +x regexreplace<br />
$ cd eclipse-src<br />
$ unzip ~/Softwares/java/eclipse-sourceBuild-srcIncluded-3.1.zip<br />
$ vi ./build<br />
-----start modify script ./build-----<br />
-change line:<br />
export ANT_OPTS=-Xmx1000M<br />
-to<br />
ANT_OPTS=-Xmx1000M; export ANT_OPTS<br />
-add a blank line at end of file, to regard the last line to sed-----<br />
-----end modify script ./build-----<br />
<br />
-----now replace all sparc with i386 in directory and file names,<br />
<br />
-----don't change i386 to x86, although x86 seems better follow eclipse src naming conventions,<br />
<br />
-----or you have to perform some extra modifications on some scripts to correct x86 to i386, <br />
<br />
-----like the awt lib path, that is $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/sparc on sun machines and<br />
<br />
-----$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/i386 on intel PCs, NOT $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/x86-----<br />
$ find ./ -name \sparc\ -exec ../regexrename "{}" 's/sparc/i386/g' \;<br />

BUILD SUCCESSFUL<br />
Total time: 17 minutes 45 seconds<br />
-----eclipse/eclipse seems remain the one for SPARC arch, update it manually-----<br />
<br />
$ cp launchertmp/eclipse eclipse/<br />
-----test run the compiled binary-----<br />
<br />
$ eclipse/eclipse<br />
-----eclipse 3.1 should start-----<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
-----Finally, be careful if you want to keep or distribute result/solaris-gtk-i386-sdk.zip, <br />
<br />
-----eclipse/eclipse inside it remains the one for SPARC arch, you may want to <br />
<br />
-----update it first.-----<br />
<br />

 

 

Tried it with current Eclipse 3.1.1.<br />
Works fine too (solaris10x86)<br />
<br />
Thanx a lot.<br />
<br />
PS.: I do not understand why there is no solaris x86 drop on eclipse.org

 

 

It works! This is my first successful Eclipse build on Solaris x86 after many other attempts. Good work!<br />

 

 

Tried this procedure with eclipse 3.1.2 and am getting the following error:

BUILD FAILED
file:/eclipse/eclipse-src/jdtcoresrc/compilejdtcorewithjavac.xml:31: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.

Total time: 5 seconds

BUILD FAILED
file:/eclipse/eclipse-src/jdtcoresrc/compilejdtcore.xml:21: The <fail> task doesn't support the nested "condition" element.

Total time: 0 seconds

BUILD FAILED
file:/eclipse/eclipse-src/build.xml:239: The <fail> task doesn't support the nested "condition" element.

Total time: 0 seconds
-bash-3.00#

Any ideas??

 

 

These are the same instructions I used to generate the Eclipse 3.1.2 that I distribute (see http://forums.hotjoe.com/posts/list/198.page for more information).

I'd say that your ant is older. If you run "ant -v" on the command line what version do you have? I'd strongly recommend 1.6+.

 

 

After wasting a day trying to follow/hack someone elses instructions
i tried this approach. it worked exactly as described first time thru.
thanks very much.

 

 

bash
may also need to set path to /usr/sfw/bin/gcc.
and don't know why need to cp launchertmp/eclipse to overwrite the old one.
But it do works for us.

I tried these instructions with Eclipse 3.2.2 with ANT 1.6.5 on my Sun Ultra 20 M2 Opteron 64-bin workstation with a fully-patched Solaris 10 (SunOS 5.10) distribution. I get the following error:

[javac] 60 problems (60 warnings)
[exec] gcc: PIC: No such file or directory
[exec] gcc: unrecognized option `-K'
[exec] make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `libswt-gtk-3236.so'

BUILD FAILED
/export/home/scm005/farm/eclipse-src/build.xml:76: exec returned: 1

I Googled a post that said these were invalid commands for a certain compiler, so I suspected this was a path issue or I have the wrong gcc module.

My path is:
/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/csw/bin:/opt/sfw/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/ucb

# find / -name gcc
/usr/sfw/lib/gcc
/usr/sfw/bin/gcc
/usr/sfw/libexec/gcc

/usr/sfw/lib/gcc contains: i386-pc-solaris2.10

Has anybody else had this issue? Any suggestions?

John,

Thank you for the reply. Actually, I had already found that build. I believe it is 3.1 or 3.2.1. I attempted to upgrade it to 3.2.2 and install the Eclipse Web Tools Project and SubClipse. Something is missing from the build. It won't upgrade and I was unable to find the missing dependencies.

I decided to give up on Solaris 10 for now because I spent too much time away from productive work. I installed Suse 10.2 on my Sun Ultra 20 instead since Eclipse has x86_64 binaries for Linux. I know have everything I needed.

My plan is to stay on Suse until two things happen: 1) Eclipse supports Solaris x86_64; and 2) Solaris 11 comes out with support for Branded Zones so I can run Suse in a Solaris Zone. I realize that I can get Solaris Express today with Branded Zones, but oddly enough, Sun does not support Solaris Express on the Sun Ultra workstation. Go figure.
