I20110310-1119 GTK Program#execute(String) cuts fragment part of file:/ arguments (starting at #) When I generate Javadoc and then want to open the Javadoc of a method selected in the editor in the system browser, then the fragment part (starting at #) is cut away in the browser. Example: String urlText = "file:/home/me/eclipse/runtime-New_configuration/javaP/doc/p/A.html#foo()"; Program program = Program.findProgram("html"); program.execute(urlText); The url looks right until Program#gio_execute(*) calls OS.g_file_new_for_uri (fileNameBuffer). Maybe g_file_new_for_commandline_arg () would be better? Unlike bug 339655 on Cocoa, this is not completely wrong, but it's unexpected. On Windows 7, the fragment is passed to the browser as expected.
I will look into this.
Do you have a snippet that reproduces the issue?
Closing this ticket now as there has been no response in awhile. Please reopen it if you can reproduce the issue on GTK3.22/24 using SWT 4.10.
Simple snippet to reproduce: try { IWorkbenchBrowserSupport browserSupport = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getBrowserSupport(); IWebBrowser browser = browserSupport.getExternalBrowser(); URL url = new URL("file://sometestfile/test.html#123"); browser.openURL(url); } catch (Exception e) { Logger.getLogger("An error occurred trying to open browser at: " + urlString); } Above code will discard #123 from the URL while opening in browser.
