Created attachment 133993 [details] Snap shots for the defects Build ID: I20090313-0100 Steps To Reproduce: Platform : Windows vista 1-Open the eclipse 2-Go to File->New->Other->General->Project 3-Add Arabic name mixed with numbers for the project name and then press finish 4-Go to File->New->Example->GEF->Logic diagram and hit Next. Be sure to select Logic Diagram and not Logic under the GEF (Graphical Editing Framework) Plug-ins 5- give the new file an Arabic name. 6-Create a label in the logic editor that opens up (by dragging a label - under components - from the palette). 7-Edit the label text in the logic editor and enter an Arabic text mixe with digits Check Result 1 8-Right-click anywhere on the palette and select "Customize" from the pop-up menu. 9-In the dialog that pops up, select the tree item labeled "Components." You should be able to edit its name and description by typing Arabic text and numbers in the areas on the right-hand side of the tree 10-press ok to close the dialog 11-View the changes you applied on the palette component name and hover the mouse to check the description Check result 2 Expected Results Result 1:Arabic text and numerals are displayed and shaped correctly in the label inside the logic editor Result 2:Arabic text and numerals are displayed and shaped correctly Actual Results: Result 1:When editing in the text in the label the numerals are shaped correctly (check screen shot LabelInLogicEditor_underFocus_Result1.JPG) However the numerals are shaped wrongly it is shaped as Arabic European digits instead of Arabic indic digits after losing the focus (check screen shot LogicEditor_Result1.JPG) Result 2:When editing in the customize palette editor ,Arabic and numeral are displayed and shaped correctly(check screen shot CustomizeEditingdialog_Result2.JPG) However after pressing ok and hover over the component to check the new description for the component , the numerals are shaped wrongly it is shaped as Arabic European digits instead of Arabic indic digits(check screen shot CustomizeEdit_Result2.JPG) More information:
Resolution of BIDI defects are not in plan for Galileo. BIDI in text fields in SWT applications are limited by issues in the base platform and there is no plan to address these issues in Galileo. Leaving open in case BIDI defects are looked at in a future release.
Hi Anthony, I am interested in contributing to fix this bug, Would you direct me for what was reached so far from SWT limitation so that I may continue?

Created attachment 201482 [details] Proposed Patch
I believe that the call org.eclipse.draw2d.text.TextFlow.contributeBidi(BidiProcessor proc) is responsible for dividing the text into fragments and then each fragment is passed individually to be drawn, if a fragment contains numbers, then it is not passed within its context and therefore it will not be shaped correctly Now I have a few questions 1- What is the purpose of BidiProcessor? 2- why it was added, what kind of bidi issues it solve and why it is needed in TextFlow? As far as i see stopping its calls solve the problem and do not cause any issue please check the proposed patch

(In reply to comment #6) > (In reply to comment #4) > > Created attachment 201482 [details] [details] > > Proposed Patch > > Would anyone at least check this patch? fixing this bug will also fix a number > of related bugs Well, I don't know much about Bidi (and I don't read or speak Arabic), but according to the Javadoc of BidiProcessor#process(), it is responsible of the following: * Processes the contributed text, determines the Bidi levels, and assign * them to the FlowFigures that made thet contributions. This class is for * INTERNAL use only. Shaping of visually contiguous Arabic characters that * are split in different figures is also handled. This method will do * nothing if the contributed text does not require Bidi evaluation. All * contributions are discarded at the end of this method. Thus, I doubt that simply removing the call is a valid patch.

I can see that there are two proposed solutions for this bug: 1)Solution 1: Stopping the call to org.eclipse.draw2d.text.BidiProcessor in org.eclipse.birt.report.designer.internal.ui.editors.schematic.figures.TextFlow in case of Arabic locale.(refer to the patch in comment 4). 2)Solution 2: Shaping the digits using ICU to be in Arabic form in case of locale = Arabic and digit substitution = Context. (Please Check the attached patch which is based on the proposed fix in comment 3). This solution introduces a new method[isContextDigitSubistitution()] in "org.eclipse.swt.graphics.TextLayout" in SWT to check the digit substitution and then it is used by method [shapeArabicDigitsContextually(String text, int orient)]in org.eclipse.draw2d.text.BidiProcessor to perform the shaping. The method [isContextDigitSubistitution()] is added also to org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Resource which is the super class of org.eclipse.swt.graphics.TextLayout to avoid compilation errors in different platforms other than Windows which don't have this bug present(See the attached snapshots for Windows and Linux platforms after applying the fix). So this solution requires changes in these classes: org.eclipse.draw2d.text.BidiProcessor org.eclipse.draw2d.text.TextFlow org.eclipse.swt.graphics.TextLayout org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Resource Please advice.
