Hi All,
I am working on a product which is based out of Eclipse 4.12 (Pre-requisite is GTK 3), and using GEF 5.1.0.
While using GEF features of the product in Linux, software was crashing.
Then I tried passing --launcher.GTK_version = 2 option for launcher. This has solved the crash issue but its giving way to other issues.
Hence, I want to ask following questions.
Is GEF 5.1.0 compatible with GTK 3 ?
If not, what is the work around for this ?
Thanks and Regards,
Giri

When using GEF inside Eclipse, the JavaFX-SWT integration is employed. As Camille already pointed out, SWT dropped support for GTK2 with the 2018-12 release. On the other hand, JavaFX added support for GTK3 not before version 9. If you want to stick to Java-8, you will have to stick to GTK2 and thus to an oder version of Eclipse/SWT.
