Description René Krell CLA Friend 2009-09-09 03:48:44 EDT 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-3.1 Firefox/3.5.2
Build Identifier: I20090611-1540

Launching Eclipse in KDE 4.3.1 on OpenSUSE 11.2 Factory Milestone 6+, configuration see below:

Very often I do not get the toolbar in the Console and Search View, but only a white space in that place, which doesn't respond on mouse clicks. These toolbars worked without problems in Eclipse 3.4.x and earlier versions. Sometimes restart helps. The kind and number of view concerned by this change sometimes after restarting Eclipse.

At the moment I use a VESA graphics driver on an Intel chipset, which is quiet slow, if this plays a role.

Please ask for details, if you need some more.

Comment 1 René Krell CLA Friend 2009-09-09 04:34:16 EDT 
I tried this already with the following JDKs:
java-1_5_0-sun-1.5.0_update19
java-1_6_0-sun-1.6.0.u15
java-1_6_0-openjdk-1.6.0.0_b16

The problem is always the same.

You seem to still have the view's menu though (the inverted triangle on the top right). I have seen a screenshot where someone's 'Breakpoints' view was missing the toolbar in its entirety (it wasn't even being drawn).

Yes, but incomplete.
Addditionally, see my second attachment with the Console View, with the tooolbar totally missing. Are you sure whether the recent assignment of this bug to the Debug component was right? It seems to be a general UI problem IMHO.

I wasn't even aware that it was reassigned (though I do now from looking at this bug's history), I just saw a new bug and clicked on it.

Ultimately, I think this is a GTK+ bug/feature/whatever. I've never seen this problem on my Linux notebook. What version of GTK+ are you on? 2.17.7? I guess 2.17.x anyway.

I use GTK 2.17.9, right. 
Anyway, it would be fine to see Eclipse in newer distributions without this bug, again :-) Do you have any recommendations?
Comment 8 Remy Suen CLA Friend 2009-09-09 08:48:06 EDT 
Note that Steffen did bring up a toolbar repainting problem in bug 286687 comment 11. Whether that's been fixed or not, I do not know off-hand.

I would probably downgrade GTK+ to 2.16.x (or lower).

Ok, this might be a workaround, but no solution, of course. Although the GTK is given in most cases and you can't quickly change within a distribution without recompiling many other packages (which are usually pre-compiled).

BTW: Even removing the QtCurve style and the appropriate KCM module in KDE (using GKT clear look) doesn't help

Does anyone know a similar problem with GTK 2.17.x and different applications?
Comment 10 René Krell CLA Friend 2009-09-10 07:32:53 EDT 
After compiling and installing GTK 2.16.1 and recompiling gkt2-engines and qtcurve for OpenSUSE 11.2 M6+ I can confirm, that the problem reported here disappears.

The reason seems to be definitely in an incompatibility between Eclipse 3.5 and GTK 2.17.x.
Comment 11 René Krell CLA Friend 2009-09-10 07:34:12 EDT 
... even 2.17.10 did not help solving this for GTK 2.17.x.

Yes, I figured this would be non-trivial for most major distributions. I use Gentoo myself so it's not a big deal, but anyway, thank you for your investigations, René.

SWT, please advise...
Comment 13 Bogdan Gheorghe CLA Friend 2009-09-11 12:22:48 EDT 
We are aware of some big changes in GTK 2.17.x around the way windows are created.  I'll see if I can see this with our latest 2.17.11 library.

For me, this problem ist still present and unchanged in GTK 2.17.11 (openSUSE Factory packages).

Same problem here, also I can't switch perspective with a single click anymore, I have to either double-click or keep the mouse pressed a long time.
I hope there'll be a Qt version of SWT soon so I can finally fully remove GTK from my system.

Same Problem
OpenSuse 11.2 RC1 
Eclipse 3.5

*vote for QT port* ;-)
Comment 19 Roland Tapken CLA Friend 2009-10-24 11:21:37 EDT 
Reproducable with galileo sr1 on Mandriva 2010.0 RC2 (64 bit). Ganymed seems not to be affected. +1 for a native Qt port :-)

I was wrong, Ganymed is affected, too.

Yes it seems so. Eclipse 3.6 M2 got this problem already fixed and works fine with GTK 2.17.x an 2.18.x. Hopefully this fix will occur soon in the 3.5 series. Thanks.
Comment 22 Bogdan Gheorghe CLA Friend 2009-10-29 14:49:57 EDT 
BTW, did you try setting the following env var: GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true? Should fix things with 3.5.x in GTK versions greater than 2.17.11.
Comment 23 Silenio Quarti CLA Friend 2009-10-29 16:38:56 EDT 
Bogdan, this bug is probably a duplicate of the Z-order problem that was fixed buy calling the new window restack GDK API. That fix has to be back ported to 3.5.2.
