Description Cristi C CLA 2010-07-02 10:21:42 EDT 
SWT Dialogs: MessageBox, FileDialog and DirectoryDialog freeze if they are used in a Java Web Start application on Linux.

If I start the application from eclipse everything works perfectly. When the application is started from Java Web Start, after installation, all instances of these dialogs freeze the application when closing them.

This issue happens only on Linux (I tested on Ubuntu) 32-bit and 64-bit. On Windows and MAC OS the issue does not reproduce.

The exact versions of all programs I use are:

Ubuntu 10.04
Java 1.6.0_20
Eclipse SWT 3.6
