Description Zheng Can CLA 2004-04-07 01:28:56 EDT
Hi, all.
I'm a chinese. When I download Eclipse 3.0M8 and try to use it, I found it can 
not support chinese well.
Using default configuration, no chinese charactor can be seen in the editor 
tabs, only some small boxes ( like this: [] ) instead.
If I change the text font setting ( ref: Window - Preferences - Workbench - 
Colors and Fonts - Category: Uncategorized ) to system chinese font, then I 
can see them in editor tabs.
But unluckily, the Code Assist could not support chinese at all, no matter 
which text font has been setted.
I don't know why does it happened. In 3.0M7 and before, everything are all ok.
In microsoft word chinese edition, there are two types of text font: English 
text font and Chinese text font. We can set them separately.

And, how can I use Project - Build All? It always disabled. I selt strange 
that how can I rebuild the project without the command, although the Clean do 
the same thing. ( Clean and Rebuild )

At last, I hope eclipse can rebind Ctrl+F11 to Run Last Launched as default as 
usual.

Here is the example code:

public class Example {
	/**
	 * Say hello in english and chinese
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.out.println("Hello");
		String s = "ÄãºÃ";
		System.out.println(s);
	}
}

We din't change stuff on the Text side. Moving to SWT for comments.
Comment 3 Grant Gayed CLA 2004-04-07 09:30:26 EDT
FH to check whether code assist works in chinese.

Zheng, the disabled Build All action and the Ctrl+F11 request should be logged 
in separate reports since these are not related to swt.
Comment 4 Felipe Heidrich CLA 2004-04-07 11:29:55 EDT
We will fix TextLayout to perform font substitution just line gc.drawString 
does, you want need to changed the font anymore to have chinese characters.

I don't know why the code assist is not working.
I don't know why build all is disable.
Those don't seem to be SWT bugs. Please, in the future, enter one problem 
report per problem.

Please, retest using next week integration build and reopen this pr if the 
problem persists.
