[platform-dev] Building platform.swt locally

[Gayan Perera <gayanper@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm working on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=573016 and just want to make a local build of org.eclipse.swt and get the jar file to patch my eclipse installation. I have a bash script which can create a patch jar which will only contain the classes in the commit. So i can manually replace the installation jar with the modified classes. I have been doing this for jdt modules.

But when try to build swt project, i cannot get the jar file which contains the compiled classes. Is there a special set of steps i need to run to get the jar file ?

Best regards,

Gayan.
