Hi,
We're having a problem displaying pdf files from and SWT Browser
class in Mozilla on Suse Linux with SWT 3.1.1.
When I launch Mozilla standalone, and navigate to the page that
embeds the pdf, it works fine. A dialog popups asking me if I want
to open it with acrobat, or save the file.
When I navigate to the page inside an swt browser class,
I immediately get the file save-as dialog...it doesn't give me the
option of opening it in acrobat. If I save the file, it winds up
saving a valid pdf file which I can open in acrobat.
Am I doing something wrong, or could this be a bug
in SWT? In our case, the url I set is actually to a normal html page.
then if you
click on a button on the page, it hits our server, which
returns a pdf response
Here is basically what I'm doing....
final Shell shell = new Shell();
shell.setText(windowTitle);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
shell.setMaximized(true);
Composite comp = new Composite(shell, SWT.NONE);
comp.setLayout(new FillLayout());
Browser browser = new Browser(comp, SWT.NONE);
browser.addOpenWindowListener(new OpenWindowListener()
{
public void open(WindowEvent event)
{
Shell shell = new Shell(getMainShell().getDisplay());
shell.setText("");
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
Browser browserNew = new Browser(shell, SWT.NONE);
//add window open/close listeners here (removed for brevity
sake)
event.browser = browserNew;
}
});
browser.addCloseWindowListener(new CloseWindowListener()
{
public void close(WindowEvent event)
{
Browser browserNew = (Browser)event.widget;
Shell shell = browserNew.getShell();
shell.close();
}
});
browser.setUrl(url);
shell.open();
Thanks,
Joe

Joe,
I think that you have two versions mozilla
pdf view work fine when you have pdf plugin for mozilla
- you have plugin when launch mozilla standalone, but no when call swt
browser
it is possible that you have user-based plugin for mozilla
(in .mozilla/plugins) and it isn't used when you call from swt
workaround : check pdf plugin for mozilla in MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/plugins
peco

Joe,
it is simple - you have to find mozilla install which eclipse use
and plugin have to exists in MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/plugins
if you have mozilla nad firefox it is two mozilla install
(firefox is mozilla without mail, irc,news,composer etc - it is same
libraries) - you eclipse use firefox , maybe
add nppdf.so to FIREFOX_HOME/plugins, too
try make new user and start standalone mozilla and check pdf plugin
(without install plugin for this user)
you can see plugins with link about:plugins (in swt browser , too)
- check this link standalone and in swt browser and you will see different
swt browser is complete same like standalone mozilla
