Description kryr

2009-10-28 04:32:11 EDT

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20091021 IceCat/3.5.3
Build Identifier: 20090920-1017

I have a new empty java project. Each time I right-click on it, new->class, enter new class name (any name) and hit "finish" button nothing happens.
It happens in other dialog boxes too (most of the dialog boxes so I can no longer use eclipse).
It looks like button's mouse-button-up event is not working. The buttons gains focus and "bevels" when the mouse's cursor is on it but nothing happens. I can still close the dialog box using the keyboard.
Some of the dialog boxes work fine - I don't know the rule behind it. However the error is 100% reproducible.
I think it is something between SWT and Cairo/GTK/?.
When I try to run older eclipse (fresh one, with newly created workspace) version I got a bunch of errors in the log file (attached).


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create empty java project.
2. Right-click on it in the explorer window.
3. Select new->class.
4. Enter any class name in the window.
5. Try to click "finish".

I'm using 64bit Linux.

Sounds like bug 291257. Please check the workaround there and see if it works for you or not.

Yes, setting GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true works. Thank you. (why I didn't find those bugs before?)

However the bug 291257 does not cover eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR2-linux-gtk-x86_64 (attached log).
And the given workaround does not work for it. But I assume it's a completely different error.

That's a Eclipse/XULRunner version incompatibility problem. See 213194 for details. It's also described briefly on the IRC FAQ.
