Description Andrew Overholt CLA Friend 2009-10-08 10:38:56 EDT 
In my local build, it appears SWT's internal browser doesn't work because it can't see the XR libraries:

No more handles [MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME='/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9'] (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-mozilla-gtk-3555 or swt-mozilla-gtk in swt.library.path, java.library.path or the jar file)

The compilation of the JNI SWT XR .so didn't give any errors ...
Comment 1 Andrew Overholt CLA Friend 2009-10-30 15:27:31 EDT 
Fixing this would also allow Debian/Ubuntu to drop the LD_LIBRARY_PATH munging in their wrapper script.
Comment 2 Benjamin Drung CLA Friend 2010-03-17 18:12:40 EDT 
This bug is still valid in eclipse-build 0.5.0 on Debian and Ubuntu.
Comment 3 Andrew Overholt CLA Friend 2010-04-13 16:26:24 EDT 
Benjamin, do eclipse.org drops work out of the box on Debian?
Comment 4 Benjamin Drung CLA Friend 2010-04-13 18:41:47 EDT 
The eclipse classic from eclipse.org works out of the box on Debian. For the Debian/Ubuntu package build with eclipse-build, we have to set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME.
Comment 5 Andrew Overholt CLA Friend 2010-04-19 08:56:12 EDT 
Do you have to set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME at build time or run time or both?
Comment 6 Benjamin Drung CLA Friend 2010-04-19 09:34:45 EDT 
I have to set in on runtime.
Comment 7 Andrew Overholt CLA Friend 2010-08-06 09:46:32 EDT 
I don't know what's going on here but it requires some more investigation from the Debian and Ubuntu packagers.
Comment 8 Benjamin Drung CLA Friend 2010-08-06 18:30:21 EDT 
Can this be introduces by a patch from eclipse-build?
Comment 9 Andrew Overholt CLA Friend 2010-08-09 09:11:25 EDT 
If it is introduced by an eclipse-build patch, I suggest iterating over the SWT patches and selectively applying/building to see if it's true.
Comment 10 Alexander Kurtakov CLA Friend 2011-08-22 10:58:23 EDT 
As xulrunner is pretty much obsolete now can we close this one?
Comment 11 Alexander Kurtakov CLA Friend 2011-09-29 08:12:36 EDT 
Noone interested in supporting xulrunner for very long time. Closing.
