Description Geoff Longman CLA 2002-10-12 12:44:42 EDT 
Have a dialog, a standard dialog, nothing special, that is not resizeable in 
Windows. But under linux (GTK), the dialog is resizeable and an error dialog is 
shown saying there is an SWT error and asking the user if they wish to exit 
Eclipse.

Eclipse 2.0.1(GTK)
Mandrake 9.0

no log information is available

Should add that the error occurs when the dialog is resized!
Comment 2 Steve Northover CLA 2002-10-15 12:45:20 EDT 
We are at the mercy of the Window Manager.  We request dialog trimmings but the 
Window manager is free to ignore us and make every window resizeable.  I'm 
pretty sure this isn't an SWT problem.  The error dialog is something that 
Eclipse does, not SWT.

I tried following the link to see the stack trace but I couldn't get in.  
Geoff, please attach the stack trace to this PR.

I'm moving this to UI for now.

Alas, no log info was posted into the .log file at the time of the error.

I suspect it is related to the GTK resize core in Bug 24797
Comment 5 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-10-21 08:36:43 EDT 
the GTK problem is fixed in the M2 build. Marking as Fixed - please reopen if 
you van make it happen again in M2 or later.
