Re: [platform-swt-dev] Any chances we can get #466499 in for Mars?

Hi André,

Do you really need to run with GTK3 or would GTK2 be acceptable? You can use this in your product's launch arguments:
--launcher.GTK_version 2
http://help.eclipse.org/luna/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fmisc%2Fruntime-options.html
This is what we do in Trace Compass. I think we're almost at a point where we could switch to GTK3 though!

Hi

in JBoss Tools we're unfortunately hit by a serious bug in jface trees
for SWT/GTK3 (all elements get the same label):
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-19853

This bug unfortunately makes our tooling unusable with Eclipse/Mars for
Linux/GTK3.
Snjezana Peco made a patch in
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=466499 but I was told that
this wont make it to Eclipse/Mars.
I already talked to Alexander Kurtakov which explained to me that the
patch is late and would need 2 committers and 2 platform leads to vote
for it.
I was hoping that we could get this approved since we would have no
other choice but to tell our users to painfully wait for another 6 long
months before Mars SR1.

Thanks
André
