I would like to compile the org.eclipse.linuxtools project myself. How should I proceed?

[laomaolaile]

I have tried to use the mvn install command to compile the org.eclipse.linuxtools project, but I've encountered various errors. I feel unable to resolve these errors myself. Could you please share how you compile the org.eclipse.linuxtools project? Do you use any other tools?

My Java version is java 21, and my Maven version is Maven 3.9.6.

Looking forward to your reply.thanks

How did you obtained the linuxtools code? Is this master? I think not as it should be using linuxtools-e4.32.target.

[laomaolaile]

Yes, I am using the master branch. I have also tried other targets, but I am still encountering errors.

Have you managed to compile? If not, make sure that you pull latest from this repo master, git status should show no changes and retry. The output saying linuxtools-e4.31 shows you're not using latest.

I can compile it normally now, thank you very much.

There are two issues.

Firstly, my Java version is too low. Previously, when compiling embedded cdt, Java 17 was sufficient, while the latest version of org. eclipse. linuxtools requires Java 21.

The second question, my branch https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.31-I-builds/ Unable to access, after switching to the latest branch, it will return to normal. Perhaps it would be better to use CDT's p2 address directly here?

This is development version and it requires Java 21. Furthermore it relies on very latest Platform (

org.eclipse.linuxtools/releng/org.eclipse.linuxtools.target/linuxtools-e4.32.target

Line 39 in cc82f0d

<repository location="https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.32-I-builds/"/>

) and very latest CDT (

org.eclipse.linuxtools/releng/org.eclipse.linuxtools.target/linuxtools-e4.32.target

Line 55 in cc82f0d

<repository location="https://ci.eclipse.org/cdt/job/cdt/job/main/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/releng/org.eclipse.cdt.repo/target/repository/"/>

) and this is in order to ensure that this development version will work with very latest Platform and CDT.
If you want to work on e.g. stable-8.14 branch , edit

org.eclipse.linuxtools/releng/org.eclipse.linuxtools.target/linuxtools-e4.31.target

Line 39 in e0c5927

<repository location="https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.31-I-builds/"/>

to use the stable 4.31 url https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.31/ . Note that you may have to do the same for CDT.
As you are able to compile master I am closing this one now.
