On my Arch Linux, Eclipse 3.7 with Google Window Builder/SWT application, I am getting

Exception in thread "main" org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles [Unknown Mozilla path (MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME not set)]
    at org.eclipse.swt.SWT.error(SWT.java:4308)
    at org.eclipse.swt.browser.Mozilla.initMozilla(Mozilla.java:1826)
    at org.eclipse.swt.browser.Mozilla.create(Mozilla.java:687)

    at octopus.MainController.main(MainController.java:85)

I believe I need to install XULrunner or something. But when I install xulrunner in Arch, I get xulrunner and eclipse are in conflict. So I tried installing pywebkitgtk & libwebkit3 (I think the later is whats required?).

Then I added

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=webkit 
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.UseWebKitGTK=true

in /usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini. But when I run, I still get the same error. It appears webkit is still not used. How can I fix this?

Hi,

Is the Browser created with style SWT.NONE or SWT.MOZILLA?
If its SWT.NONE, it will try to use Webkit first. See faq --> http://eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#browserwebkitgtk

If its SWT.MOZILLA, it'll use XULRunner. Supported version of XULRunner for eclipse 3.7 is upto 1.9.2. See faq for supported versions --> http://eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#browserlinux
