managing multiple platform specific eclipse SDKs : [message #326923]

Hi,

I came across situation where I need to use a eclipse SDK for each
platform we do support for our RCP product -.

Now instead of using eclipse SDK for different 4-5 platforms and they have
just of around 5 MB platform dependent stuffs, dont we have mechanism
where we can use a eclipse SDK common to all platform and integrate RCP
delta package containing all platform specific stuffs and respective
launcher for same purpose.

Im not sure whether RCP detla will serve same objectives for me AND how.

Any Ideas on these pls ???

Thanks,

Hi,

Just to make things much clarified

here my Idea is not to use RCP delta pack for cross-platform export of out
RCP product. Here It mainly plays role behind the scene for build n
deployment support -.

rather we need to use from front as "a common eclipse distro for all
platforms". It could be made of "all platform independent bundles from
eclipse SDK + RCP detla pack"

as per my current knowledge , RCP delta pack is having all platform
specific bundles + a launcher for each eclipse platform specific launcher.
So, we can reference/calling a launcher jar from respective platforms
during its usage there and it should pick-up all bundles from common
eclipse + RCP detla pack according to that platform only.

Perhaps it should be treated as we have eclipse on the board for that
platform. And likewise for all other platforms .

I'm not sure whether such Ideas can be right shape for these purposes AND
how.

Thanks,
Chandresh Gandhi.
