Delos Dai commented on GERONIMODEVTOOLS-649:
--------------------------------------------

After investigation, I'm afraid it's not easier to fix this problem,unless we 
release a new version of maven-eclipsepde-plugin.

As Donald said, although build.xml has been updated, build script will download 
eclipse for Mac cocoa. But on Mac, build process still needs 
org.eclipse.swt.carbon.macosx plugins, which is used by Mac carbon. 

The reason is getSWTFragmentDependency() method in maven-eclipsepde-plugin. 
maven-eclipsepde-plugin will analyze required plugins listed in MANIFEST.MF and 
add them into maven project dependencies list. Besides the plugins in 
MANIFEST.MF,  for native UI implementation, maven-eclipsepde-plugin will force 
to add a eclipse plugin specific for the UI implementation of OS.  Eg. on 
Linux, it's org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux_x86_3.6.0;on windows, it's 
org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.6.0;on Mac, it's 
org.eclipse.swt.carbon.macosx for carbon or org.eclipse.swt.cocoa.macosx for 
cocoa. Unfortunately, maven-eclipsepde-plugin currently only recognize  
org.eclipse.swt.carbon.macosx. That's why I said we have to release a new 
version of maven-eclipsepde-plugin.

Donald,
Although maven-eclipsepde-plugin is released by GEP, a new release still needs 
a long process. Since it's not a big problem, I think we can defer this JIRA 
without blocking GEP 3.0 M1 release. Anyway, I will provide an updated 
maven-eclipsepde-plugin in attachment. You can install it manually into your 
maven repo and update the version of maven-eclipsepde-plugin to 2.0 in GEP 
source. Have a try and let me know your result!

> Need to update  eclipse/build.xml to make GEP build successfully on 32-bit 
> Mac. Eclipse 3.6 has dropped support for Mac carbon. The script should change 
> to Mac cocoa.
> From Donald,
> Could not build on MacOSX, as the referenced file no longer exists -
> file=/technology/epp/downloads/release/helios/R/eclipse-jee-helios-macosx-carbon.tar.gz
> Looks like we need to use the following 32bit Mac download instead in
> eclipse/build.xml -
>    <property name="helios_jee_macos"
>        value="eclipse-jee-helios-macosx-cocoa.tar"/>
>    <property name="helios_jee_macos-x86_64"
>        value="eclipse-jee-helios-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar"/>
> Also, I had to specify specific mirrors to use (like AWS) as the local
> mirror didn't have the Helios files on it yet....
