Limitations of Internationalization Features
The following limitations apply to the current internationalization support features:
*Saving or reading a string in an .ilv file is carried out in the encoding of the current locale. Trying to read a file which is not encoded in the current locale will fail.
*No input through an Input Method server is supported for the password text field, since the user doesn’t have to see what he is typing.
*No input through an Input Method server is currently supported for the date field and the number field. On Windows platforms, the user must disconnect from the FEP in order to be able to enter text in these gadgets.
*IlvAnnoText has no internationalization support.
*Depending on the fonts or the language you use, the Rogue Wave Views Studio Main Window may be too small. But as with any Rogue Wave Views Studio panel, the Main Window size can be customized by setting the width in the studio.pnl file:
panel "MainPanel" {
// ....
width 900;
}
*Multibyte variables are not supported in this version. For information on the variables module of Rogue Wave Views, see the Manager documentation.
*You can define any single-byte character with Rogue Wave Views for mnemonics. We recommend, however, you install mnemonics on single-byte characters that have a corresponding keyboard key. For example, we do not recommend using accents in European languages and Hankaku characters in Japanese.
*On UNIX systems, only Input Methods implemented using a Back-End architecture are supported. For example, if you are using the htt import server on Solaris, you should set the XIMP_TYPE environment variable to XIMP_SYNC_BE_TYPE2 before running your application.
