I have eclipse up and running on FreeBSD, however, be forwarned....
The Linux 1.4.1 port has tons of problems on FreeBSD, in regards to Eclipse
the 1.3.1 native FreeBSD port does as well. However the Linux 1.3.1 port and
Eclipse work great togther.
Also, you will have to install openmotif for the gui. Eclipse does support
GTK > 2, however this is a bit more complicated to get working.
Regards,
Weston
