Linking core boot [message #193911]

An example simple application I have found is helping me to learn the
ECLIPSE JAVA IDE and requires minor modification between 2.1.0 and 2.1.2.
I have it working in version 2.1.2 but not 3.0.0 M6

http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/os-ecgui1 /

I have now attempted to get this working with 3.0.0M6 and the problem
appers to be linking the boot runtime. How do I get the program working in
3.0.0_M6?

And in General, how do I determine which units to link? between one
version and the next when things change?

This program requires the following linked units in 2.1.0

C:\eclipse-2.1.0\plugins\org.eclipse.jface_2.1.0\jface.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.0\plugins\org.eclipse.swt.win32_2.1.0\ws\win3 2\swt.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.0\plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench_2.1.0\work bench.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.0\plugins\org.eclipse.runtime_2.1.0\runtime.j ar
C:\eclipse-2.1.0\plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime_2.1.0\runt ime.jar

In 2.1.2 this must be changed to

C:\eclipse-2.1.2\plugins\org.eclipse.jface_2.1.2\jface.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.2\plugins\org.eclipse.swt.win32_2.1.2\ws\win3 2\swt.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.2\plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench_2.1.2\work bench.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.2\plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime_2.1.2\runt ime.jar
C:\eclipse-2.1.2\plugins\org.eclipse.core.boot_2.1.2\runtime .jar

In 3.0.0 M6 ?

Replacing all these inks with 3.0.0 results in linkage error. What am I
missing?

Since eclipse 3.0M6, boot is empty (actually it should be deleted) and
runtime has been completely re-organized.
It seems that what you need is probably a subset of that:
a.. org.eclipse.core.boot (it is still here to make other plugins happy)
a.. org.eclipse.core.runtime
a.. org.eclipse.core.runtime.compatibility
a.. org.eclipse.help
a.. org.eclipse.jface
a.. org.eclipse.osgi
a.. org.eclipse.osgi.services
a.. org.eclipse.osgi.util
a.. org.eclipse.swt
a.. org.eclipse.swt.ws (window-system-specific plug-in fragment)
a.. org.eclipse.ui
a.. org.eclipse.ui.workbench
a.. org.eclipse.update.configurator
a.. org.eclipse.update.core
a.. org.eclipse.update.core.os (OS-specific plug-in fragment)

Since what you are trying to achieve is close to an RCP app, you may want to
