the fix for bug 81834 provides numeric substitution when:
1. In the control panel, under regional and language options, the value for 'Use natives digits' is set to context or native, and standard digits set to Arabic.
In another words, the locale is set to, for example, Arabic (Egypt)
2. the control is created with the SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT flag.

The first requirement I cannot change.


Do you want me to change the code so national digit substitution happens when the controls are created with SWT.LEFT_TO_RIGHT was well ?

Fixed in HEAD > 20090911

StyledText will perform digits substitution on the same case when as the native Text control.
