Hi,
I've just found out Eclipse hangs on Fedora 6 when triggering the
native GTK file open dialog (when using "open file" or browsing
directories). Happens on GCJ or Sun JDK 1.5 with both Fedora Eclipse
and
eclipse.org versions.
Anyone familiar with this problem? Suggestions where it should be
reported?
Might be attempting to run the gtk file dialog from a thread, that
dialog appears to only work reliably when run from gtk's "main thread".
I do a bit of a dance in
openoffice.org to spawn the dialog off in a gtk
idle handler to get it run in the gtk main thread and wait for it to
return in the original thread.
