Bug 94406 – swt doesn't build with ibm-jdk due to missing jawt library

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Florian Loitsch 2005-05-29 12:01:12 UTC]

If the system-jdk is set to ibm (at least for version 1.4.2), the lib jawt  
isn't found, and the compilation aborts (see error below). After switching to 
the SUN-jdk, the emerge completes succesfully.

[Comment 1 Mikko Tiihonen 2005-06-29 13:21:12 UTC]

The IBM jdk does include libjawt.so. It is just in different location.

For IBM jdk the libjawt.so is always in JDK/jre/bin
For SUN jdk the libjawt.so is in JDK/jre/lib/{i386,amd64,ppc?}

Another thing I noticed when creating an ebuild for eclipse 3.1 was that the IBM
jdk for amd64 has broken jni.h header and the build wont work against it without
some patching.

The workaround is to add -D_JNI_IMPORT_OR_EXPORT_ to CFLAGS when compiling swt_awt.c

[Comment 2 Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) 2005-07-05 20:07:17 UTC]

This has been resolved in the 3.1 ebuild, please try that.  Mikko, could you
please open a new bug for that AMD64 issue? (Assign to [e-mail] and CC
[e-mail] please).
