Hi,
I'm using latest SWT 4.2 with an application in which I want to bundle XULRunner in order to deliver end user a portable application (our users always complain about setting MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME or other browser related issues on Linux). For this, I downloaded XULRunner from mozilla.org (h++p://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/) and passed the following jvm options:

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=xulrunner (where xulrunner folder is available in my app)
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla

Unfortunately I receive XPCOM error when I use any of 1.9, 3.6 and 10 xullrunners. When I remove the two options, it starts correctly as it finds a proper webkitgtk installation. This is fine, but I want it to work seamlessly on any Linux distribution even without webkitgtk.

My test platforms are Ubuntu 11.04 and 12.04, Sun JVM 1.7.03 32 bit, XULRunner 32bit 1.8.x, 1.9.x, 3.6.x, 10.x.

Thanks
Mohsen

It sounds like you're doing the right thing, though you do not have to
set the org.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType property if you don't
strongly care which of the native renderers gets used (WebKitGTK is
tried first, but if it's not available then the fallback to a
mozilla-based renderer happens automatically).

If you're getting an XPCOM error then it sounds like it's finding a
XULRunner. What does the error's stack look like? Does the snippet at
www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#printmozillapath work for you (set its
org.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath value with System.setProperty(...))?

The problem resolved by specifying full path of the XULRunner after the propertye:

org.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath

. I believe this is a bug, and Eclipse should also accept relative paths. Please specify this trick in SWQ FAQ page until it's resolved in future releases.

Thanks.
