Hello guys,
due to a massive memory leak with the SWT browser widget (ref https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=134646) I am in need to create at least one other Display instance. I am fully aware that "it is not recommended" and any application should "almost always" only use one display instance. Though I haven't found any specific reasons why this is supported (on windows) but in fact a bad idea. So I still do hope, that there is a workaround for that.
My goal is to use another display instance to draw (only) the browser in a part so I can dispose the display when the part is closed and finally be able to free all allocated memory.
As I am already in the GUI-Thread when the part is created and I try to create another object instance, I of course recieve the "invalid thread exception".
Does anyone know a way to get around this problem? Any help would be much appreciated. Even if it's a clear statement, that this is at the moment not achievable.
Thank a lot!
