I am using jre 1.6 on linux with swt-gtk-3.5.2
I'm opening a swt dialog from lotus notes.

The source code for the dialog is the following:

            
            Display display = new Display();
            Shell shell = new Shell();
            shell.setText( "Dialog" );
            shell.setSize( 300, 200 );
            shell.open();

            final Button button = new Button( shell, SWT.PUSH );
            button.setText( "Button" );
            button.setBounds( 20, 40, 80, 25 );

            while ( !shell.isDisposed() ) {
                if ( !display.readAndDispatch() )
                    display.sleep();
            }
            display.dispose();


The code is ran after pushing a button in lotus notes. After closing the swt dialog, the parent application becomes unresponsive as if something remained from the dialog.

If on the other side, I attach to the button some code that doesn't open any swt UI element, it works ok and doesn't render lotus notes unreponsive.

The same problem does not appear in lotus notes in windows.

Is this a known linux-related swt problem?

Thank you.

I have tried to open the shell with SWT.MODELESS | SWT.CLOSE or SWT.MODELESS| SWT.ON_TOP | SWT.CLOSE but the parent window is still inactive on linux.

If only I could make the dialog nonmodal, I think the problem would disappear.

What if you used Display.getCurrent() to get the display, and don't use Display.dispose() at the end?

Display.getCurrent() returns null

It shouldn't be related to display as long as it works on windows. I think it is something with swt-gtk but don't know what.

GTK doesn't support multiple Displays within JVM. Are you launching a new JVM from within notes with that button push? What if you use Display.getDefault() instead of Display.getCurrent()?
