[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-2601) Danish characters in UTF-8 encoded properties files get messed up in JBDS 1.1.0.GA using JBoss Tools Properties File Editor

Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-2601:
----------------------------------------------
JBoss Tools Property Files Editor has ui page, which allows to view and edit user-friendly
characters rather than \uNNNN sequences. The conversion between \uNNNN and characters is
done by loadConvert, saveConvert in java.util.Properties. In principle, these methods are
trivial (just several lines of code), and why cannot we re-implement them if we need it
for supporting encoded .properties files? If sun had a private method solving problem x *
x + a * x = b, could it mean that we may not write a method solving it?
Danish characters in UTF-8 encoded properties files get messed up in
JBDS 1.1.0.GA using JBoss Tools Properties File Editor

Key: JBIDE-2601
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-2601
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: core
Affects Versions: 2.1.2
Environment: Windows XP SP3, Java 1.5.0_14, JBoss Developer Studio 1.1.0.GA
(JBoss Tools 2.1.2.GA). NOTE: project and Eclipse is set up to handle text files as UTF-8.
All properties files are UTF-8 encoded.
Reporter: Henrik Rathje
Assignee: Viacheslav Kabanovich
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 3.0.0.cr1
Attachments: JBDS-394-screenshots.zip, mess.properties, mess.properties,
nomess.properties
I have a properties file encoded in UTF-8 containing some properties with danish
characters in the value part.
If I open it with my "old" Eclipse 3.3.1 it's ok, even when using JBoss
Tools 2.1.2.GA (JBoss Tools Properties File Editor).
If I use JBDS 1.1.0.GA and open it with the eclipse build-in properties file editor
it's also fine!
BUT if I use JBDS 1.1.0.GA and open it with the JBoss Tools 2.1.2.GA (JBoss Tools
Properties File Editor), it messes up the file!
Test scenario:
***************
1. Create a UTF-8 encoded file containing the danish letter
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00e6/index.htm.
2. Open it in JBDS 1.1.0.GA with the eclipse build-in properties file editor. keep it
open.. see that the danish character is displayed ok.. it should be..
3. Keep the previous editor open, and open the same file with the JBoss Tools 2.1.2.GA
(JBoss Tools Properties File Editor)
4. Note how the previous build-in properties file editors version of the file gets marked
as changed (the good old little *), but not in the version opend by the JBoss Tools
2.1.2.GA (JBoss Tools Properties File Editor). Also the danish letter is messed up in the
JBoss Tools 2.1.2.GA (JBoss Tools Properties File Editor) editor.
5. So just opening the file with the JBoss Tools 2.1.2.GA (JBoss Tools Properties File
Editor) changes the file.
I will try to attach the "before and after" files as soon as possible.
