Eclipse for solaris x86?


Is it possible to provide Eclipse for solaris x86?
I referred to eclipse web site but i couldn't find eclipse for solaris x86. Does exist such thing in the world? why does exist for Sparc machines but no release for x86?

You can build it:
http://code.google.com/p/solipse/

Someone is offering binaries here:
http://nowonder.foldr.org:8080/rolle...ipse_3_3_and_3

And Blastwave is doing it too:

Lack of Solaris support is an eclipse bug discussed here:

Can NetBeans be a possible alternative for you?

Netbeans is certainly a great project too and is also a platform with plugins, i.e. more than an IDE.

Anyway, did you try any of my suggestions about eclipse on Solaris x86 ?
