Eclipse follows symlinks for classpath libaries
Last modified: 2008-04-03 15:00:56 EDT
Eclipse follows symlinks for classpath libaries but probably shouldn't. This could potentially cause a problem with the alternatives system and requires the src.zip for the classpath to be placed in /usr/share/java instead of /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj4-1.4.2.0/.
Is this a libgcj bug?
I can't really remember the details around this, so I'll have to re-investigate. IMO, I think this is a priority problem so I'm going to mark it as such. Feel free to change the priority back if you don't agree.
Using subclipse, I just got an error because the "Eclipse path" and some other path didn't match (/home/cygnus/overholt/... vs /home/overholt). Is this the same issue or is that a bug in subclipse?
It might be the same issue, I'd have to look investigate to be sure.
