Native Eclipse 3.1 doesn't start

[Dominik Łeszyk]

Hello,
I'm really fresh to java-fedora stuff so maybe it's the reason for my
problem: after compiling Eclipse 3.1 using the script from 'GNU
Classpath Wiki' [1] I can't start it. There is an error log:

The compilation process went pretty smoothly (without any errors) and
path for db file (gnu.gcj.precompiled.db.path) was set correctly. I
don't understand but it seems that classloader doesn't see original jar
libraries. Am I correct? What should I do?

Sorry no one got back to you.  Are you still having problems?

Hmm.  Why were you trying to build it yourself (just curious)?  I'm not
sure that the instructions on the Classpath Wiki are up-to-date.  Perhaps
take a look at our specfile and see if you notice any differences.
