I also saw Tim do a demo of Eclipse running on Harmony at EclipseCon '06, so it seemed in pretty good shape. However, that was running the JDT; whilst the CDT is likely to be in similar position, you might find that one or two APIs are needed for CDT but not JDT :-)
Having said that, the fixes in the API are likely to be minimal if any, and exercising the build against more tools is a good way of finding where the holes are :-) Alex. On 30/05/06, Paulex Yang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
