[compose-gradle-plugin] run task makes AWT segfault

[ptitjes]

When your run a compose application with the run task contributed by the compose gradle plugin, it adds to the Java command line the following system property:

-Dcompose.application.configure.swing.globals=true

This makes the JVM crash when opening an AWT file dialog:

#

Process finished with exit code 134 (interrupted by signal 6: SIGABRT)

I cannot provide the full error log nor the core dump.

However, the following minimal application runs well with -Dcompose.application.configure.swing.globals=false but crashes with -Dcompose.application.configure.swing.globals=true:

import androidx.compose.ui.window.*
import java.awt.*

fun main() = application {
    Window(
        title = "Test Application",
        onCloseRequest = ::exitApplication,
    ) {
        AwtWindow(
            create = {
                object : FileDialog(window, "Title", LOAD) {
                    override fun setVisible(value: Boolean) {
                        super.setVisible(value)
                        if (value) {
                            println(file)
                        }
                    }
                }
            },
            dispose = FileDialog::dispose
        )
    }
}

As a workaround, I override the jvm args with the compose gradle plugin dsl:

compose.desktop {
    application {
        // ...

        jvmArgs("-Dcompose.application.configure.swing.globals=false")

        // ...
    }
}

So now my workaround does not work anymore. Here is a reproduction repository https://github.com/ptitjes/repro-compose-issue-2249.

You'll find two main files:

• Main.kt, launches an AWT FileDialog through Compose integration (and fails)
• MainAwt.kt, launchs an AWT FileDialog directly (and succeeds)

I can also reproduce this with https://github.com/oss-review-toolkit/ort-workbench, ./gradlew run, and then clicking on "Load ORT Result".

Looks like it's related to using Wayland (as opposed to X11).

I'm getting a different type of fatal error when running Compose Desktop on WSLg regardless of what I set -Dcompose.application.configure.swing.globals to. I'm trying to run the compose-multiplatform-template project from JetBrains out of the box on WSLg. The same works fine in an Ubuntu VM, just not WSLg for me. Were you able to get any type of resolution to this?
