I want to run Eclipse Java Development Tools form source code, but I’m stuck after checking out codes from eclipse repositories.
I’ve checked out all plugins from org.eclipse.jdt and imported them into my workspace, but after this I’m stuck.
There is lot of errors so obviously there are dependencides missing, but I don’t know what else is needed to import/install in order to make this work.
I’ve read tutorial by Lars Vogella about working with Eclipse source codes, but it only covers examination of codes.

The Eclipse Classic Edition has the source-code of JDT and PDE integrated. After downloading and starting Eclipse Classic you can open the View “Plug-ins”, select the JDT Plugins and select “Import as…” -> “Source Project” via Context-Menu
