Description Matthieu Wipliez CLA 2010-06-27 14:22:50 EDT 
Build Identifier: 20100617-1415

I have a GEF-based graph editor (http://graphiti-editor.sf.net/) that uses the GEF PrintAction. When I open the editor under Linux, the PrintAction calls Printer#getPrinterList, which somehow fires an event (after going in the Gtk OS layer) that seems to end up making Eclipse reactivating the part.
See stack trace attached.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a file with the editor on Linux

Printer.getPrinterList() is causing a button click. Assigning to SWT for investing.
