Description LE HELLIDU CLA 2011-05-18 05:03:41 EDT 
Hello,

When you add/modify i18n keys in file .properties with the UI Interface of BIRT RCP Designer, it modifies order of the existing keys.
=> Property Editor - Label / Localization / Browse ... / Quick Add

When this .properties file is managed by CVS and modified by several developpers, the merge is more complicated due to melt of keys.

Could you garantee that new i18n keys will be added at the beginning or at the end of the .properties file ?
And could you garantee that the order of all existing keys will not change ?

Or

Could you garantee that i18n keys are sorted with the same algorithm ?

Those examples of solutions would simplify comparaison with CVS but perhaps other solutions would work.

Fixed it.

Customize a linked properties class to save and load properties file.
