GEF comes with examples (including source code). I have no problem running
them.
However, I'd like to be able to recompile them. This appears to be not
straightforward, as source code for the examples does not include any
project configuration files (it is just Java). I believe, that one has to
know quite a bit about eclipse (and abouth the specific plugin) to
recreate configuration files specifying extension points etc. This
situation is not specific to GEF, it appears to be common for all plugins
available from http://www.eclipse.org
So far, I was unable to find any instructions on how to recompile the
examples. The closest I could get, are the following instructions on how
to recompile the whole of the Eclipse:
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.1-20 0506271435/srcIncludedBuildInstructions.html
Is their an easy way to recompile Eclipse examples? I did try to use File -
Import in various combinations, but it goes nowhere. To import, I need to
have a project in place. And to create a project, I need to specify all sort
of configuration options ...

File a bug for this I think just to be safe. You should be able to just
import the project and have it compile, if I recall, I've had cases
where this wasn't true for some of the samples.
