| Q: Which GTK version do I need to run SWT?
| * Eclipse/SWT 3.8.x: GTK+ 2.6.0 and its dependencies
Per the subject-line, GTK+ 3.18.9 is newer than 2.6.0, so, unless I've misread or misunderstood the FAQ topic cited, I don't understand why I need a newer version.
Apart from that, the version of GTK+, GTK+ 3.18.9, is not something I have any control over. If Zoom (with its bidirectional AV) and many apps couldn't run on HP ThinPro, then I'd willingly accept that I was being unrealistic in expecting a modern app to run on such an antique. But that isn't the case.
HP ThinPro 7.1.0 Build 18 Service Pack 8 is the latest (last updated a couple of months ago). Whilst one might wish for HP to update to a later base than Ubuntu 16.04LTS, if they thought it was preventing Customers from running contemporary apps, I'd imagine that they'd have re-based it. I'm surprised and disappointed that Eclipse is unusual in not being able to run on HP ThinPro 7.1.0/Ubuntu 16.04.

2020-06 is Eclipse/SWT 4.16. That means GTK 3.20 is what's expected, and the 4.16 plan details Ubuntu 20 LTS as a target O.S.
"org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles" is not something you usually see on on startup, so the fact that your installed version of GTK is below the expected minimum is the first thing that stood out as a possible problem--that, and your Java Runtime's "vendor" property is reported as "Private Build". Either way, this sounds like something to ask HP support about. There's no way to tell if something they've done to make their thin client OS work or be secure is somehow involved and actually the cause.
