Java error.log

During normal Eclipse IDE usage it crashed. The Java log, which is attached, shows that it does when invoking the "g_type_check_instance_cast" function from the "libgobject-2.0" library.

Which version of SWT are you using? Which OS/distribution, and which version of GTK?
Comment 2 Alberto Salvia Novella CLA 2019-02-11 12:13:13 EST
You know, I reported this bug two years ago. I don't even use the same operating system, and I'm unable to tell if the bug is still there.

According to the error log in the attachment, it was an Eclipse 3.8 (org.eclipse.platform_3.8_155965261) on Ubuntu 16.04, GTK 2. Bug version is also set to 3.8.1... URL above also gives a link to a Ubuntu bug report.

Since GTK 2 is no longer supported and neither is Eclipse 3.8, I'd say this bug is no longer relevant?

Correct, closing this ticket as GTK2 is no longer supported.
