Thanks Nick.

I downloaded: unfortunately it seems to the build is for Solaris on Sparc.

Is there a build for Solaris 10 on x86.

Cheers,

If your platform/OS combination is not listed on the eclipse.org site,
then you'll have to build it yourself.

Googling, I found these:

Thanks Nick.

I attempted to compile eclipse on x86 but found that it needed sunstudio
which is defendant on netbeans5.5.5. I had netbeans6.5 installed and I
could not find a way to tell sunstudio to use my version.

Anyway I have now installed solaris 2008.11 in VirtualBox and have found a
version of eclipse that works on that platform.

I'm getting there !

Cheers

If you're running VirtualBox why not pick a linux that's supported by
Eclipse, like Fedora 10? If you run Fedora 10 in a VBox instance,
Eclipse is available as an .rpm, so you can install it simply with `yum
install eclipse...`

http://spins.fedoraproject.org/ (eg., Developer spins)
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora (other options)

I have the following rpms installed:

eclipse-ecj-3.4.1-5.fc10.i386
eclipse-swt-3.4.1-5.fc10.i386
eclipse-rcp-3.4.1-5.fc10.i386
eclipse-platform-3.4.1-5.fc10.i386
eclipse-jdt-3.4.1-5.fc10.i386
eclipse-pde-3.4.1-5.fc10.i386

Of course other linuxes work too (debian, ubuntu, gentoo), Fedora's just
nice because it comes with a JDK that actually works with Eclipse
(OpenJDK 6), so you don't have to remove gcj and/or install something by
hand.

$0.02,

Nick

I've eclipse working (well the gui appears, have not tried anything else
yet) on my platform. If I have issues I will take your suggestion with
Fedora.

Just need to install ZK Studio and attempt to learn.

My aim is to create a small app which can record time spent on a task.
Record that info in a dB and produce some graphs.
So
Input from the user:
user A spent x time on task y
user B spent x time on task z
user A spent x time on task z

Info stored in db (mysql)


Output = graph with various options ie
graph for task(s)
graph per user
graph for all users
graph over time for task

I've lots of learning to do as I'm a complete newbie :)

Thanks for your advice.

there is even a report plugin for Mylyn that will produce the graph you

Still more of it is done in Tasktop, which extends Mylyn.

http://tasktop.com/products/tour/

I don't think they back into a database, however. I suspect it's just
XML files.

Thanks for the pointer.
TaskTop / Mylyn seem very good - probably too complicated for what I need.

My intention was to use ZK - they have a charting zul - have a look
(http://www.zkoss.org/zkdemo/userguide/#d2). So my intention is use the
front end and plug it into a dB.

Unfortunately - I'm having problems downloading Web Tool Platform 3.0.3
(WTP) as there seems to be a dependency on installing which I can't find.
The dependency
is :
requires feature "org.eclipse.platform (3.4.0)", or compatible.

Any ideas on how to get the dependency. I'll also mail on the elcipse WTP
forum.

Thanks for your help guys.

I have 3.2 installed.

I attempt to install WTP 3.0.2 - I get the following:-

Requested operation cannot be performed because it would invalidate the
current configuration. See details for more information.
Web Page Editor (Optional) (2.0.1.v20080811-32-9oA55S5M5J) requires
plug-in "org.eclipse.emf.ecore (2.2.0)", or compatible.
Apache MyFaces Trinidad Tag Support (Optional)
(2.0.1.v200808071446-1-8Y7w311919182557) requires plug-in
"org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi (2.2.0)", or compatible.
XSL Tools (Incubating) (0.5.0.v200808041223-6872EC3wSUIU7eJGVdY_1)
requires feature "org.eclipse.wst.xml_ui.feature (3.0.0)", or compatible.

How do I get these plugs?

My aim is to install the zk studio plugin which requires WTP.
The only reason I'm using eclipse version 3.2 is that its the only version
I can find that works on Solaris 10 x86 my preferred operating system.

Thanks again

If you stick with Eclipse 3.2, you can only run WTP 1.5. Here's the latest.

http://archive.eclipse.org/webtools/downloads/drops/R1.5/R-1 .5.5-200708291442/

For Eclipse 3.3, you can use WTP 2, which requires EMF 2.3.
For Eclipse 3.4, you can use WTP 2, which requires EMF 2.4.

You might want to try solipse, aka Eclipse 3.4 for Solaris x86:

http://code.google.com/p/solipse/

Or, failing that, Fedora 10, ubuntu 8.10... or any of the other 'nixes
which ARE supported. :)

Nick -thanks for the great link that explains how to build Eclipse for
Solaris x86. Unfortunately, the build did not work for me - issues with
the Make file and to debug (imo) will take a lot of time.

It seems I'm hitting a big brick wall (and its hurting). It looks like I
need a new build of Eclipse to run ZK Studio (thanks for the info Eric)
which is not easily available for my OS (Solaris 10 x86).

So, it looks like the option for me is (which Nick suggested) to install
Fedora 10 - ubuntu 8.10 in a VM and go from there. I've been using
Solaris for many years, another unix OS will be a bit of a learning curve
- but learning is good :).

If you have any other suggestions, please let me know.
Have a great Christmas - thanks for your help.

You can run the live CD in a Vbox or VMware session. Or you can copy the

for faster performance and pervasive storage. 2G or larger recommended.

[2] https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/

Of course Fedora's not the only choice, but it's one I use and thus
recommend. :)
