Ron.Stewart Jul 13, 2009 5:48 AM (in response to hemant_k)@hemant_k: Thanks for the quick follow-up. Perhaps a little more clarification? "Not supported platform[s]" as in "not supported for the beta program" or as in "no plans to support"? Given that Eclipse runs well on both of the two platforms I've enquired about, perhaps a brief explanation of why those two platforms aren't/won't be supported?

Intaxity Nov 9, 2009 11:05 AM (in response to Ron.Stewart)That sucks that we got a professional IDE based on technologies that spanned from the Linux/Unix world and to top it off it almost even works on Linux too....
http://www.compoundtheory.com/?action=displayPost&ID=414I got Eclipse 3.4 under Ubuntu 9.04 to load some of the features and plugins by following the above script - I am able to create project, Apply CF nature and it shows me some of the menus (create CF File) and editor works for existing files, however, I haven't been able to get it fully working yet (no new CFComponent, CFInterface menus and I haven't tried to get RDS going but it defenitely has potential. Let's hope that when it gets released someone will at least figure out how to assemble it all under Linux.
Although I know there are a million Linux distributions out there, it looks like Ubuntu is one of the most widely used among web developers as well as SuSE and Red Hat/Fedora for enterprise users. All these distributions are very well put together and fairly consistent for linux distros. How hard it is to support Ubuntu and Eclipse for Linux? Eclipse already works better on Linux than on Windows. The above article proves that the work you've put in to the Windows version of CFBuilder already amost works on Linux.
How hard would it be to at least provide us with a buggy features and plugins archive that we can add to our Eclipse installation. Here's to hope for an out-of-band, true multi-platform release based on Eclipse 3.5...
