The GCJ developers have used Eclipse with GCJ only (no Sun JRE!) for quite some time, but they patch Eclipse itself to do so, that's why a Red Hat RPM was so interesting. I could develop Java apps, using a professional IDE, without a proprietary Java VM. I heard also the Eclipse RPMs contained gcc suport (CDT from Eclipse.org) and some plugins developed by Red Hat itself, say for packaging a project as an RPM file. Even a native eclipse build without Java (JDT) support, only C/C++ support, would be great. []s, Fernando Lozano
