Re: [dtp-dev] Fix BIDI and DBCS Defects ASAP

[Hui.Cao@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,
        The
following BIDI and DBCS defects have been fixed or I think should not be
fixed:
Bug 130521
HCG_BIDI: Undesirable order of BiDi
chars in SQL editor
Bug 130522
HCG_BIDI: Undesirable order of BiDi
chars in Run dialog
Bug 130523
HCG_BIDI: Undesirable order of BiDi
chars in duplicated BiDi conf. name
Bug 130527
BIDI3.2: [HCG] Editors used for SQL
query editing are mirrored in RTL
Bug 130532
HCG_BIDI: Undesired order of BiDi char
as part of file path


Bug 130887
DBCS3.2: System default encoding should
not be used as XML header encoding.
Bug 131912
DBCS3.2: SQL scrapbook: does not work
"content assist" after changing shortcut key
Bug 132294
DBCS3.2: Cannot select the listed Database
Name at "Select Profile for the Editor"

Please see the bug entry for detailed
information. Basically, for the BIDI defects, SQL Dev Tools can now make
sure all the widgets used to display SQL statements are always in left
to right orientation, such as SQL Editor, Run dialog, Results View and
Outline view. So it's consistent with Java Editor. 
For SQL Editor, since it implements
org.eclipse.ui.part.IWorkbenchPartOrientation, I overrided getOrientation
to always return SWT.LEFT_TO_RIGHT. For other controls, such as table,
tree, or text, I simply set a SWT.LEFT_TO_RIGHT style to the constructor.
After setting the orientation style,
it's all up to SWT to decide how to display the text. I see that some of
the results are not as expected, but these behaviors can be observed elsewhere
in eclipse, so I think they should be addressed by Eclipse platform itself.

I'm new to BIDI support, so I'd like
to know whether there're other solutions to the problem. Any comments?

Best Regards!
