Weird bug in RAP [message #2116] Wed, 17 January 2007 07:36 Go to next message

Hi there

When trying to create a "PropertySheet" using the System-properties on a
windows-system the Display went blank. I analyzed the causes and found:

o Any property (or table-item-text) that has a trailing backslash causes
this error

o there are properties that consist of newline-characters - these props
also cause a blank display

o In addition any backslash (e.g. within path-information) will be
filtered out

This error also occurs when doubling the (trailing) backslashes

This error not even occurs with the table but also with MenuItems so I
suppose it's a general issue of any text-containing widget and it might
also be an effect of other special (but valid) characters

Regards
Stephanus Mueller

Stephanus,

thanks for the bug report. As you mentioned, it is a general issue that
affects all widget texts.
A fix should be in CVS today late afternoon. I will send a note to this
list when its in.

Rüdiger

I just committed the fix to CVS.
Double quotes and backslashes are now escaped. Newline chars are
currently stripped from the text. This is only a quick fix, probably
multi-line and single-line text widgets need a different solution therefore.

Cheers,
Rüdiger

Hello Rüdiger

that was quick. That'll help a lot. I interpret your words that we have
to escape quotes and backslashes according to Java.

Stephanus

Hi Stephanus,

you just need to escape them as the compiler requires it.
For example
text.setText( "\"path\\to\\somewhere\"" );
would be displayed on the client as
"path\to\somewhere"
