Re: [equinox-dev] Request for Source-Only Archive for Eclipse Equinox SD

Hi Abhishek,

What exactly prevents you from removing the binary files from the provided ZIP files yourself?

I doubt that another company or individual committer will jump in here and provide that service.

Just my 2 cents.

Cheers

Hello Team,

 

I'm reaching out from Ericsson regarding a licensing compliance requirement for Eclipse Equinox components used in one of our products. We need to analyse the source code for the following versions:

 

Eclipse Equinox 4.36 (Ticket 1805819): https://download.eclipse.org/equinox/drops/R-4.36-202505281830/download.php?dropFile=equinox-SDK-4.36.zip

 

Eclipse Equinox 4.30 (Ticket 1801656): https://archive.eclipse.org/equinox/drops/R-4.30-202312010110/download.php?dropFile=equinox-SDK-4.30.zip

 

Issue Description

 

We  requires human-readable source code (.java files) for compliance review but cannot process binary .jar files. The SDK zips contain both:

 

Compiled JARs (e.g., org.apache.commons.commons-codec_1.16.0.jar with .class files)

 

Source JARs (e.g., org.apache.commons.commons-codec.source_1.16.0.jar with .java files)

 

However, Compliance reject for the packages due to the presence of binaries, requesting "source code only" links.​

 

Request

 

Could you please provide: Source-only ZIP archives containing just the .source_.jar files (or extracted .java sources) for Equinox 4.30 and 4.36?

 

Thank you for your support!

 

Best regards,

Abhishek Kant Rattan
