Wouldn't the following be sufficient: 1- Put the (probably very small) patch in our repository. 2- Update make/depends.xml to fetch eclipse sources. 3- Update the build procedures to apply the patch and build/rebuild eclipse when necessary. => * Very small increase in repository * Longer *initial* build, but no change to next ones. * We have 2 compilers: Eclipse & Sun => Geir's condition is satisfied :-) Etienne -- Etienne M.
