Hi John,

This was recently asked on the swt newsgroup,
see http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/article.php3?id=2134&group=eclipse.platform.swt
for info about building this on your end.

If you think that irix should be an
officially supported platform then this is an issue for the PMC.  Several
of its members read this list, so one of them can comment here.

Eclipse-dev,

I have been looking searching the archives for information on Eclipse IRIX
(SGI) port. While there are a couple of questions, these efforts appear
to
have come to nount. How can we initiate an offical effort to get Eclipse
ported to IRIX?
I noticed that there are both Motif and GTK Unix ports (both these are
available on IRIX). I have also downloaded the "source" distribution,
but
noticed that this includes binary "launcher" apps which are platform
specific.
- So what is the best way to approach this?
- Where are the launchers and other bits required for a full build of
eclipse?
- If this effort is successful, how can distribution be made available
to
other IRIX users?
Thanks for infomation.

John Hartley.
