SWT.CLOSE ignored for dialogs on Linux/GTK [message #457603]

Hi,

Is it possible to have a dialog on GTK that does not have a close
button on the top right of the dialog frame? When I try not specifying
SWT.CLOSE, it's ignored, and a close box shows up anyway.
(Btw, I'm using the JFace Dialog class, not the SWT dialog, but
I'm sure the same problem exists).

If it's not possible to get rid of the close button on GTK, then
I have another question.

What is the proper method of handling the event that should be
generated when the user clicks the close button? I don't seem to
get a notification on the buttonPressed method of the JFace Dialog
class when you press that close button.

Thanks,
Joe

Check the snippets at

with the specific example

For short you have to use the untyped event SWT.CLOSE

It depends on your window manager as to whether it will honour the
request. I believe some window managers will always give a close button.
