Re: [platform-dev] Preparing SWT native code for building from a shell?
Hi, Please note that the Jenkins jobs build the libraries for all platforms. Also, the jobs include steps to move the source code and libraries as the machine where the ant scripts run and the machine where the native libraries are built are different. If you are working on a single machine, the steps can be simplified in your setup. This Wiki page gives you an overview of the jobs:https://wiki.eclipse.org/SWT/Native_Builds_on_Foundation Thanks & Regards,Lakshmi P Shanmugam,Eclipse Platform Co-lead,India Software Lab, Bangalore - Original message -From: "Torkild U.

Re: [platform-dev] Preparing SWT native code for building from a shell?
Hi Torklid, Are you looking at building the SWT libraries and source? You can do that using the existing ant scripts in the SWT repository. You need to call the specific target depending on the required output. Go into the swt-gtk fragment cd eclipse.platform.swt.binaries/bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64 To build the native libraries and swt-gtk java source, run the ant script build.xml which is there at the location. 1. Build swt-gtk native libraries ant -f build.xml build_libraries 2. Build the jar ant -f build.xml build.jars To create a zip with native libraries and source 1. Build swt-gtk native libraries ant -f build.xml build_libraries 2. Build source and create zip with everything included ant -f build.xml swtdownload If you are not interested in the building the native libraries and use the existing libraries from the fragment, please skip the build_libraries step. Please let me know if I missed something. Thanks & Regards,Lakshmi P Shanmugam,Eclipse Platform Co-lead,India Software Lab, Bangalore - Original message -From: "Torkild U.

PS If the gerrit job for SWT binaries does compile the binaries as part of that check it may be useful too: https://ci.eclipse.org/platform/job/eclipse.platform.swt.binaries-Gerrit/ ~~~ Jonah Graham Kichwa Coders www.kichwacoders.com On Mon, 8 Jul 2019 at 11:57, Jonah Graham wrote: > Hi Torkild, > > I hope you get some more concrete answers than this, but in the past when > I have been stuck resolving such issues I have found the build scripts on > Jenkins used to build very useful.

Hi Torkild, I hope you get some more concrete answers than this, but in the past when I have been stuck resolving such issues I have found the build scripts on Jenkins used to build very useful. Can you replicate the build machine's process? (https://ci.eclipse.org/releng/job/SWT-native-build/): I think it goes roughly like this (for x86_64): ant -f eclipse.platform.swt.binaries/bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64/build.xml copy_library_src_and_create_zip mkdir buildnatives cd buildnatives unzip ../eclipse.platform.swt.binaries/bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64/tmpdir/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64.master.zip export MODEL=x86_64 export OUTPUT_DIR=$PWD/libs sh build.sh clean install # delete existing libs if present cp $PWD/libs/* ../eclipse.platform.swt.binaries/bundles/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64 # then build the bundles with maven HTH, Jonah On Sun., Jul. 7, 2019, 19:25 Torkild U.
