BUG in SWT Browser Widget
28 Jan 2008
I have just discovered a bug in SWT Browser Widget which is used by Eclipse for its internal browser. Just type in http://www.friendster.com/ anyway inside eclipse (some editor inside eclipse). Hold CTRL and click on that link to open Eclipse internal browser. As the page is about to finish loading, Eclipse closes!!
The version I am using is SWT 3.3, the latest, so called stable release.
No idea as of now why this is happening. I guess there is some component inside friendster.com homepage that SWT Browser widget does not like much, and infact it is a VM error!
By the way I am running Fedora Core 7.
