Fixed. Please verify. Verified. Marked as to be fixed for R1, per agreement with TVT testers for NL signoff. Tested on Japanese machine, category includes accelerator character. This prevents proper display in a tree view (see image). If this key is being used as both a menu selection and category, it must be split into two separate keys, one with the accelerator character (&) and one without. This is the same problem as bug 5222.

Japanese Show Views > Other... dialog, 'Debug' category not displayed correctly
Fixed in 2.0 Verified in 2.0 Darin,
Just a little FYI, since it isn't clear from the problem answer... this bug
reports two problems, the hardcoded string and the reuse of a string in two
places (see below).
This separation of menu and categories isn't simply because of the presence of
an accelerator, it is also necessary for proper translation. In the menu case,
the word is a verb ("to debug"), in the category case it is a noun/adjective
("debug"). While the two words are often the same in English, this is rarely
true in other languages (e.g., in French "débougage" versus "débouger").
The string is no longer hard coded, and we have different strings for the category, view, and action. |
From org.eclipse.debug.ui\plugin.xml: <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.views"> <category name="&Debug" id="org.eclipse.debug.ui"> </category> The 'name' attribute is translatable.
