Anybody tried DRLVM+Eclipse and can share? [WAS: Re: FW: [build] Building on Eclipse - FYI]

["Morozova, Nadezhda" <na...@intel.com>]

Folks, 

Has anybody tried working with DRLVM in Eclipse? did you have to screw
it before it ran ok? Do you have anything to share? Let's write a doc! 

Background
We've been trying to gather useful info on working with Eclipse and our
code base. Eclipse+classlib page has been updated, see JIRA H2009.
The only drlvm-oriented doc that mentions Eclipse is Getting Started
with DRLVM. The doc is terrifically outdated. 

If anybody has relevant updates, we could update the document/write a
new one/add to eclipse+classlib page to make it cover both vm and
classlib. Volunteers? 

Thank you, 
Nadya Morozova

<ps: I'm just rewriting Egor's idea from the email below to attract more
people's attention>

OK. Let me put it the other way. If someone has something valuable,
not obvious to write about DRLVM+Eclipse, I am for it. If the page is
going to be just a long-living stub, I am not happy.
