Hm; this says gtk 3.24.41...

akurtakov commented 3 days ago

@vogella Please note that SWT has been compiled with gtk 4 support but launcher isn't and this is most likely what fails for you. Use the launcher.jar and not executable for now (to uncover pending SWT problems).

vogella commented 2 days ago

Thanks @akurtakov, I interpreted the announcement email in the way that the executable should also work (as it mentioned Eclipse applications). Will retry with the JAR only.

You get the same issue with the splash screen when launching the IDE from within the SWT workspace. For whatever reason, SWT gets stuck in the gtk_init() method.

Bypassing the splash screen by either using the jar or -noSplash both work, except that the IDE then crashes while showing the workspace selection screen:

Reason most likely being that the AccessibleObject hasn't been implemented for GTK4, so events are fired using a NULL handle.

@ptziegler do you think you can reproduce the problem in a standalone snippet?

That class isn't really trivial, so I'd first have to understand what exactly it does... but I suppose I can have a look.
