Hello everyone,

4.8 is almost done and many GTK3 bugs have been fixed. For 4.9, we are again focusing on GTK3 bugs and performance issues.

If you are running SWT/Eclipse on GTK2, please try with GTK3 as we are trying to root out all SWT bugs which prevent GTK2 users from switching to GTK3. If you already filed a bug awhile ago, please feel free to email/CC me as a reminder -- we have a backlog of old bugs so sometimes these things slip through the cracks.

We also have the 4.9 GTK3 bug tracker which can be found here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=535255

It's worth noting that GTK 2 support will be dropped as soon as work towards supporting GTK 4 starts so please stop using GTK 2 backend.

 

Thanks,
