Hello,

I am a developer on a RCP Application using the Eclipse 3.7.2 SDK. Our application used to be based on the 3.5.2 SDK, and we just moved to 3.7.2. I understand that one major change was moving from the Motif to the GTK libraries on AIX. However, I am encountering an issue in AIX 7.1 using the new 3.7.2 SDK. Anytime I try to access a screen containing a combo box (such as launching a File Browser Dialog or clicking next on a wizard when the next page has a combo box), I get a SWTError: No more handles exception.

Here is the error from my log file for when I try to access a file browser:

Nothing will show up in the GUI. The error just gets silently logged. For example, I will click next on the wizard to browse to a page with a Combo widget, and nothing will happen. If I remove a combo from the wizard panel, I can go to the panel without any problems.

I know Eclipse 3.7.2 has not been officially verified against AIX 7.1, but Eclipse 3.5.2 worked without a problem.

BTW, here are my library versions, in case it is relevant:

cdrecord-1.9-7
mkisofs-1.13-4
unzip-5.51-1
glib-1.2.10-2
gtk+-1.2.10-4
atk-1.10.3-2
cairo-1.4.10-1
expat-1.95.7-4
zlib-1.2.3-4
freetype2-2.1.7-5
fontconfig-2.2.2-6
gettext-0.10.40-8
glib2-2.8.1-3
libpng-1.2.32-2
libtiff-3.8.2-1
libjpeg-6b-6
xrender-0.9.1-2
xcursor-1.1.7-2
xft-2.1.6-5
pango-1.10.0-2
gtk2-2.8.3-9
AIX-rpm-6.1.2.0-3


I've tried updating the gtk2 and glib2 libraries, though I am having difficulties since the site I am using (www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/software/aix/linux/toolbox/alpha.html) seems to have AIX 5.2 libraries.

So, anyone have any ideas of what I need to do? Are there any AIX 7.1 libraries I can get for gtk2?

Thanks!

I figured out the problem. I just needed to update my gtk2 libraries. I also needed to update to SP 7100-00-01-1037 to update my rpm version, since my RPM version was from 6.1, not 7.1. So, after updating my rpm version with the service pack and updating my libraries, the issue went away.
