Backslash doesn't seem to work to extend values in properties files. The properties file has BigDropsQuery.help = Display memory accumulation points in the dominator tree.\n\n\ Displayed are objects where the difference in the retained size of the parent \ and the children is very big. These are places where the memory of many small \ objects is accumulated under one object. The first \"interesting\" dominator \ of the accumulation point is also shown. but only BigDropsQuery.help = Display memory accumulation points in the dominator tree.\n\n\ is displayed.
I see that other projects do have them working: http://babel.eclipse.org/babel/translate.php?project=birt&version=2.6.0&file=source/org.apache.derby.core/about.properties Perhaps this is a CR/LF versus LF line separator problem, or a CVS versus Subversion problem.
The problem is shown when files have CR/LF instead of LF at the end of lines. I changed one file to LF and got the following: http://babel.eclipse.org/babel/translate.php?project=tools.mat&version=1.0&file=org.eclipse.mat.api/about.properties Eclipse Memory Analyzer - API feature\n\ \n\ Version: {featureVersion}\n\ Build id: {0}\n\ \n\ Copyright (c) 2008, 2010 SAP AG, IBM Corporation and others.\n\ All rights reserved.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
http://babel.eclipse.org/ is down so I cannot check the bug today.
It looks like this has been fixed: http://babel.eclipse.org/babel/translate.php?project=tools.mat&version=1.8&file=org.eclipse.mat.jdt/org/eclipse/mat/jdt/annotations.properties&string=OpenSourceFileQuery.help has a line ending \n\n\ then CR-LF, and this displays correctly. The original problem http://babel.eclipse.org/babel/translate.php?project=tools.mat&version=1.8&file=org.eclipse.mat.api/org/eclipse/mat/inspections/annotations.properties&string=BigDropsQuery.help also displays as Display memory accumulation points in the dominator tree.\n\n\ Displayed are objects where the difference in the retained size of the parent \ and the children is very big. These are places where the memory of many small \ objects is accumulated under one object. The first \"interesting\" dominator \ of the accumulation point is also shown. though this now has LF as line separators. However, old versions such as http://babel.eclipse.org/babel/translate.php?project=tools.mat&version=1.0&file=org.eclipse.mat.api/org/eclipse/mat/inspections/annotations.properties&string=BigDropsQuery.help are also okay.
Thanks for circling back!
