[7u6] Request for approval for CR 7093156 - NLS: Please change the mnemonic assignment system to avoid translation issue (Swing files)

[Alexander Scherbatiy]

Hello,

This is a request from the NLS team to backport  a JDK 8 fix into JDK 7u6.

bug: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7093156
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~alexsch/7093156/webrev7.01
review: 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/swing-dev/2012-May/002049.html

JDK 8 changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/awt/jdk/rev/cbf39e7a7535


  The original JDK 8 patch is rejected when it is applied to JDK 8 
because the property files are slightly different between JDK 7 and JDK 8
  (for example the JDK 8 basic.properties file has 2 extra properties 
and the metal.properties file has some extra mnemonics).

  The properties from the following folders are updated:
    src/share/classes/com/sun/java/swing/plaf/gtk
    src/share/classes/com/sun/swing/internal/plaf

  According to the request from the NLS team the properties, mnemonics 
and mnemonic indexes are unified from the
    xxxText, xxxMnemonic and xxxMnemonicIndex to xxx.titleAndMnemonic 
(different patterns with the different suffixes are checked).

  The TextAndMnemonicHashMap class is added to the UIDefaults class that 
now parse requested keys and returns values from the unified properties.

  The fix is tested by the test that loads all old properties and check 
that UIManager.get() methods returns the same values as before:
