This is an example of why it would be very useful to make Classpath fully bootstrappable by merging e.g. cp-tools, gjdoc, gij and gcjx into the Classpath repository/build system. Long term I guess this is where we're headed but this is just another data point that we're going in the right direction. > > Ideally Eclipse would offer the possibility of auto-exporting the > build results as a .jar. That would solve this entirely. Yes, I've wanted that in several other situations. Let's file an enhancement bug with Eclipse.
