Description Dirk Baeumer CLA 2005-05-11 11:51:02 EDT 
When switch from traditional mode to Eclipse mode the wizard should
automatically adjust the keys (e.g. exchange the . with a _). Currently you
simply get a message that some keys are invalid but actually you don't have a
clue why they are. 

Some better error message would already improve this. For example if in Eclipse
mode say that keys can't contain '.'

Forgot to mention the version id: I20050509-2010
Comment 2 Dani Megert CLA 2005-05-11 12:53:59 EDT 
Changing the key is not a good idea since this operation is not revertable but I
will improve the message.

Comment 7 Markus Keller CLA 2005-05-13 09:43:51 EDT 
Verified in I20050513-0010 that the message now tells that keys are not valid
*java identifiers*.
Bug 94950 is for an improved experience when externalizing the first time.
