Re: [platform-swt-dev] UTF-8 support and compliant components
|
If forgot something obvious, setting the -D option on the VM of
the subprocess too. This gets me the following:
123-g5Ξ㈯冓
So it works. Though while the copy and paste shows all the characters
correctly the last two were represented as boxes in the console,
indicative that the font used in the console probably does not
include the Chinese glyphs.
I wonder whether it would be possible to use the same sort of logic
used in the Java API, and also Mozilla, to look in another font for
the missing glyphs - or maybe this is something that the system should
be handling?
A further test show that if you don't set the file encoding used by
Eclipse to UTF-8, while setting that of the client process, you get
the following (mangled data):
123-g5Ξ㈯冓
Also, you must set the file encoding used by the child VM as a parameter
to the VM, doing a System.setProperty() is too late, since the
output stream has already been initialised.

On your suggestion I tried that passing the following parameters:
-vmargs -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
based on the docs at:
http://dev.eclipse.org/help21/index.jsp?topic=
/org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/tasks/running_eclipse.htm
but that does not work either. I see that the file encoding is
is set to UTF-8 in the 'About Eclipse' window, but this doesn't
seem to be affecting the output.

This doesn't appear to be font related anyway. When I run the same
println outside Eclipse, on the command line it also does not print
correctly. It looks like something gets messed up on the way through
System.out.println. What is the file.encoding VM/system property set
to? This is displayed as the default text file encoding on the
Workbench/Editors preference page.
You could try running Eclipse with the vm argument -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

Subject: Re: [platform-swt-dev] UTF-8 support and
compliant components
The font I use is 'Courier New'. I have just looked at the preferences
under 'Workbench -> Fonts' and I see the the 'Debug Console Text Font'
is indeed Courier New. Using Notepad, Wordpad and Character Map I see
that the font is capable of displaying these glyphs.
I have installed all the possible language settings in Control Panel
-> Regional Options.
Maybe having someone try a similar test on MacOS X, which I know is also
a unicode compliant platform may give some insight.

It appears that the font used by the Eclipse console doesn't have \u039e
but the default font for the text widget does. Not sure about the rest.
*public* *static* *void* main (String [] args) {
Display display = *new* Display ();
Shell shell = *new* Shell (display);
Text text = *new* Text (shell, SWT.SINGLE | SWT.BORDER);
text.setText ( "123-\u0067\u0035\u039e\u322F\u5193" );
System.out.println ( "123-\u0067\u0035\u039e\u322F\u5193" );
text.pack ();
shell.pack ();
shell.open ();
*while* (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
*if* (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}
display.dispose ();
}

I forgot to mention that I am asking the question because the
following code:
System.out.println("123-\u0067\u0035\u039e\u322F\u5193");
when run in Eclipse 2.1 gives me, under Windows 2000:
123-g5???
instead of the expected characters (display will depend on your OS
and mail client):
123-g5Ξ㈯冓
I am not sure whether this issue is because of the implementation
of the SWT component underlying the Console in Eclipse, because
of the way Eclipse is implemented or due to the JDK configuration
that I am using.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Andre
