JBuilder allows me to type any international text into the editor and automatically translate to ascii using \uxxxx format. This is great
for edit i18n properties file.Can MyEclipseIDE do that?
Thanks

Dan,
We don’t do anything to facilitate that or to prevent it. So, the answer is simply if Eclipse can do it, than MyEclipse can also. For an answer to that question, I’ll have to defer to some of our other international users for comment.

MyEclipse SupportInteresting, I have posted quite a few time on Eclippse news group, so far no answer.
I just wonder how other international app developed under eclipse handle this case. Sun does provide native2ascii converter, but it is very cumbersome.

Dan,
Have you just downloaded Eclipse and given it a try? It might be a faster way to determine the answer.

MyEclipse SupportScott,
Yes, I did manage to download and install esclipse for a month. And lacking of transparent support for i18n editor is the reason I keep sending me back to JBuilder.

Dan,
Fair enough. However, the Eclipse team responds quite well to its user community too. I’d suggest you at least enter an enhancement request through their bug tracking system. Internationization is one of the items that they’re looking at more closely right now so an enhancement in that area just might get picked up.

MyEclipse SupportI know this is quite an old thread, but in case other people wonder about that, have a look at Eclipse ResourceBundle Editor (http://www.resourcebundleeditor.com). There are options in the plugin preferences to escape extended characters in the mentionned way (\uXXXX)
Plus, it helps you manage all your *.properties files at once, highlights missing values, etc. I don’t know of an equivalent plugin (open tool) for JBuilder (I worked quite a bit with JBuilder 2005).
The plugin works well with MyEclipse and is free (LGPL).
