Hi,
I am trying to compile eclipse 4.8 on FreeBSD 11.2 by using the instructions from the eclipse wiki: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform-releng/Platform_Build#cloning_platform_source_tree
I noticed that it produces only binaries for linux, windows and macos, so it obviously needs patching.
The current port java/eclipse 4.6 downloads an .xz file containing the patched sources (maintainer ljboiler). Searching for "freebsd" I found a couple of hits and a make file "make_freebsd.mak".
Has anyone already compiled 4.8? Is it enough to just merge the diff from 4.6, or one needs to tweak more?
Does anyone know if newer eclipse versions are planned to be ported too?
Thanks!
