Hi guys,

I've finally got JOGL building in Eclipse properly on Windows and Linux. I submitted the project files as two pull requests, https://github.com/sgothel/gluegen/pull/3 and https://github.com/sgothel/jogl/pull/18.

This setup lets you use the Eclipse debugger, profiler, code navigation, et cetera. You can also run the JOGL unit tests from inside Eclipse just by right-clicking a unit test .java file and selecting "Debug As > JUnit Test".

These Eclipse project files don't contain any absolute paths, but you do have to set up the JRE and Ant in Eclipse properly or it won't work right. Instructions are at https://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Building_JOGL_in_Eclipse.

Note that those instructions currently tell you how to create the Eclipse project files for yourself -- you can skip those parts after these pull requests are accepted, because the project files will come with the code.

Enjoy!
