Internal Web Browser is not available when using SWTBot [message #559515]

Hi,

I found another problem when running SWTBot in headless mode. See the 3 Scenarios below:

-----------------------------
Scenario 1:
SWTBot started from Eclipse testing the plug-ins in the workspace.
During the test I open the preference page: General Web Browser. The page displays the "Use internal web browser" as AVAILABLE.
-----------------------------
Scenario 2:
SWTBot started headless with the same plug-ins as in the previous launch configuration but wrapped in an Eclipse Product.
During the test I open the preference page: General Web Browser. The page shows the "Use internal web browser" as DISABLED (greyed out).
-----------------------------
Scenario 3:
The eclipse product in the previous scenario is opened manually and the "Use internal web browser" preference is again AVAILABLE.
-----------------------------

The only difference between 2 and 3 is the way I start eclipse. Directly through eclipse exe or through SWTBot.
Scenario 2 has a problem it disables some functionality.

I also compared the configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles .info after the start of scenarios 2 and 3 and the loaded plug-ins are the same.

I also tried to programmatically access the Browser thinking that a plug-in is not loaded using the code:

IWorkbenchBrowserSupport browserSupport = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getBrowserSupport();
isAvailable = browserSupport.isInternalWebBrowserAvailable();

This also tells me that the browser is not available.

Any ideas why this?

Thanks,
Gabriel

I'm unaware of how the browser loading works in eclipse.

It appears that the org.eclipse.ui.browserSupport extension is not
set/loaded/initialized correctly.

A breakpoint in WorkbenchBrowserSupport.getActiveSupport() might help
eliminating these possibilities.

On Ubuntu 13.04 using Eclipse it automagically worked, I was not sure which webkit I was missing, so I installed all that seemed relevant, if someone has pinpointed which it is, please comment,
