Re: [platform-dev] [platform-swt-dev] SWT-GTK3 bugs for 4.9
|
For JavaFX the statement is 100% true and this means anything using GEF
4 and later won't work anymore.
I'd also like to state that I personally have no problem with dropping
Gtk3 but I know many many projects who JavaFX-SWT-Interopt and without
Gtk2 their Linux story is gone. So yes you could say I exaggerated for
Swing but I did not for JavaFX.
Anyways I'm not here to lobby anything but wanted to inform you that
this decision (which I don't question makes sense technically, man
powerwise, ...) could cause problems for (Eclipse) downstream projects.
