Re: [platform-swt-dev] Browser/XULRunner 1.9.3

[Grant Gayed <Grant_Gayed@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ryan,

I don't think there will be a XULRunner
1.9.3 release, the next release that I can see is 2.0.  XULRunner
1.9.3 was previously proposed but I think has been discontinued.

XULRunner 2.0 will have significant
API changes compared to pre-2.0, with no frozen C++/Java interfaces (new
policy), and will not ship with JavaXPCOM jars .  SWT is not planning
support for xulrunner versions >= 2.0, since WebKitGTK+ is available
as an alternative for SWT.NONE-style Browsers.  Support (bug fixes)
for xulrunner versions < 2.0 will continue, so swt clients using JavaXPCOM
will be supported, but must continue to prescribe a XULRunner version <
2.0.

Are there any plans/timeline for support of the newest
release of XULRunner in SWT?  There are several changes in 1.9.3 I'm
eager to get my hands on.  I know it's still in beta, but I was just
wondering if integration or testing efforts start before the release.

Cheers,
Ryan Levering
