Package: eclipse-rcp
Version: 3.7.0-0ubuntu1
Severity: normal
Unlike the PDE package, the RCP package does not include the accompanying
..source jar files which contain the .java source that was used to produce the
..jar
`dpkg -L eclipse-pde | grep \.source_` vs `dpkg -L eclipse-rcp | grep
\.source_`
These are useful because (e.g.,) they allow someone developing code in eclipse
to inspect the source for the graphical widgets they are using as part of the
code. Currently you can do this for the jface widgets (like DialogPage.class
for example) because they are in the eclipse-pde package and have the
accompanying source files packaged alongside them, but you cannot do the same
for other SWT widgets such as ScrolledComposite which appear in the eclipse-RCP
package.
Ideally the eclipse-rcp package would also include accompanying .source jars
for the jars it contains.
