Description Benjamin Muskalla CLA 2010-08-04 09:00:49 EDT
The RAP Launcer currently misses some mnemonics on the main tab (Log Level and session timeout).

Patch for the missing mnemonics

This patch adds the missing mnemonics.
Comment 2 Ralf Sternberg CLA 2011-07-04 07:12:07 EDT
Beyhan, did you actually test this patch? Two of the three mnemonics you added don't actually work:

* Client-side L&ibrary Variant
  conflicts with Trac&ing tab

* Session &timeout [s]
  conflicts with &Terminate possibly running previous launch

* Clea&r the instance area before launching
  differs from the OSGi tab which has the same option
Comment 3 Ralf Sternberg CLA 2011-07-04 07:31:23 EDT
There were some more conflicts such as:
* &Context path
  conflicted with &Common tab
* Ser&vlet name
  prevented Re&vert

Changed some mnemonics to resolve those conflicts, removed mnemonics from less frequently used or outdated options to re-use their keys by others.

Changes are in CVS HEAD.

I didn't test it. I thought it is enough to look only for conflicts inside the RAP main tab. Sorry for that. Actually, I don't see how these mnemonics could be helpful because new users can't find them (at least under Windows).

In Windows 7 you need to once press the Alt key to see mnemonics. Older Windows version show them by default.

Yes, I know this but even with pressed Alt key they doesn't show on my machine. Only by menus are shown.
