Help getting Eclipse running on Solaris [message #184475] Wed, 13 December 2006 21:09 Go to next message

Originally posted by: sbroberg.us.ibm.com

Hi all,

I've been using Eclipse under Windows for a few months now; I'd like to see
if we can get it working with our Solaris development environment. We're
running Solaris 8, Sparc processors, and I've downloaded the Callisto
binaries from eclipse.org ( http://www.eclipse.org/callisto/c-dev.php ), but
I'm getting errors upon startup ( ld.so.1: ./eclipse: fatal:
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: open failed: No such file or directory ), which I'm
assuming is because I don't have the gimp toolkit installed; I'm not sure
where I can find a solaris distribution of gtk. I'm guessing there may be
other dependencies as well. Can somebody point me at some documentation for
step-by-step instructions for setting up Eclipse on a solaris 8 box?

Thanks,

Stephen Broberg

Hi Stephen,

it looks like Solaris 8 is not supported by Callisto. Have a look at
http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/readme_eclipse_3. 2.1.html

Callisto requires Solaris 10 (on SPARC, NOT on x86), so no luck...

Sorry,

Günther

Thanks,

Is there a catalog of previous releases and supported platforms, so that I
can find if there's a earlier version of eclipse that would run on Solaris
8?

Hi Stephen,

It looks like Eclipse 3.1 is the last version supported... Here is the
link for downloading:
http://archive.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1-200 506271435/index.php

Bye,

G&uuml;nther
