On most recent Ubuntu/Fedora/etc. distros users get Wayland session by default thus I would say that even on Gtk3 Wayland has become the most common setup. |

I am open to whatever collection of backends/gtk versions. For now this PR tests as before plus GTK4 on wayland. We could enable all 6 - I don't want to overwhelm the number of builds that run if it isn't valuable enough. |

@akurtakov I split out the question of which combinations to exclude to a future commit - this PR tests all of the valid combinations. Comment 0 and commit message updated. |

The JVM crashes are a corner case that I will workaround because IMHO they are bugs in GTK not in SWT: #2853 |

Add a compositor type build matrix entry for wayland, xwayland and x11. There are a total of 6 combinations possible of GTK/compositor: - GTK3 x11 (uses Xvfb) - GTK3 Xwayland (uses xwayland under weston headless) - GTK3 wayland (uses weston headless) - GTK4 x11 (uses Xvfb) - GTK4 Xwayland (uses xwayland under weston headless) - GTK4 wayland (uses weston headless) When using Xwayland, the GDK_BACKEND can be either x11 or wayland. For the other two cases the two need to match. This commit enables 5 new configuration options to build, with "GTK3 x11 (uses Xvfb)" being the pre-existing one. It is expected a future commit will start limiting how many of these run for all PRs. Part of eclipse-platform#2714

I have given up - for now at least - getting tests reliable on gtk3+wayland. As it turns out GTK3 itself is only tested on x11. GTK4 is tested on x11, wayland, and broadway. I have therefore excluded the gtk3/wayland combination and I open this up for review now. |
