@iloveeclipse @akurtakov I wonder if it's possible that SWT can detect configurations that are known not to work and inform the user? After all, an issue like the following one...

I don’t think anybody will care whose fault the problem is. If I can’t tell whether a menu item in my Eclipse application is checked or not then my perception...

Probably everyone uses the staging view and this is how it looks for me with Windows 10: ![image](https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/assets/208716/cb949289-0989-47fa-97bf-725d6a082b9e) I'll ask Eike to show how it looks for him.

This pretty much makes such things unusable. I'll be holding off updating to Windows 11 for a bit longer for sure. The folks I know generally are not involved in...

This is how it looks now: ![image](https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/assets/208716/1b2e0f81-3792-40de-b464-3682a20af129) This is what it looked like before: ![image](https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/assets/208716/fab894cf-1975-4c08-9a1c-03487696d295) How it looks now seems way too much space.

Here is a self-contained example: ![image](https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt/assets/208716/82ad002a-768f-47e7-a832-4e4291d74d17) So yes, an auto closeable that isn't closed is considered a resource leak and depending on how a project configures the compiler preferences, this...

I fully understand the common/general use case of a GC needing to be disposed within the block of code in which it is created and see significant value in the...

Builds before this fix have a problem with split packages with inconsistent signatures: https://github.com/eclipse-equinox/equinox/pull/685 ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ba680068-4aa7-4e21-aecb-cd3c5f3a7038) I'm not sure what SWT is build against/with. The last build with the problem is...
