Hi all,

I wonder how to build an RCP application with Linux/Motif (Eclipse 3.4.x)?

I have not seen any RCP platform based on Linux/motif on the Eclipse download page. The only thing I have found is the main eclipse product...

Thus, I've tried to download the delta pack... but the linux/motif version is missing Sad

So, I've added the swt and launcher plugins of the eclipse/motif version in my current eclipse platform and rebuilt my application (the build is done with an headless ant script).
The build is successful, but when I launch the application, I've got the following error message:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-motif-3449 or swt-motif in swt.library.path, java.library.path or the jar file
        at org.eclipse.swt.internal.Library.loadLibrary(Library.java:233)

Hi tomas i think you read this how-to
http://www.vogella.de/articles/RichClientPlatform/article.ht ml
remanber you will create a produt for windows and other for linux, naturally
you can write your application on windows system.

Hi Antonio!

Thank you for your answer... but I know hot to deploy an RCP application Very Happy

The problem is: the linux/motif version seems to be no longer available... neither in the RCP plugin nor in the delta pack...

I have a bug with the GTK2 version (let's see my previous post about Obscured widget) and I wish to switch the application into the Motif version of SWT.

Tom

For 3.4.2, there is a motif download of the sdk
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.4.2- 200902111700/download.php?dropFile=eclipse-SDK-3.4.2-linux-m otif.tar.gz
that was used for testing purposes.

I'm assuming that is where you got the swt & launcher plugins?
If you look in your swt.motif.linux.x86 fragment does it contain the
libswt-motif-3449.so library? 3449 is the version from 3.4.1, 3.4.2 was
3452.

The swt java class files have hardcoded the version of the native they
are looking for, if you've assembled your own fragment jar, they could
be mismatched.

Or, if the library version is correct, maybe the library can't be loaded
due to missing dependencies. The SDK ships with a libXm.so.2 in the
root of eclipse, are you missing that?

(Also the 3.5. deltapacks do contain linux/motif if you want to upgrade).
