Synopsis Java Plug-in Control Panel can't show correct Chinese words
Category java_plugin:other
Reported Against kestrel-rc3
Release Fixed
State 11-Closed, duplicate of 4346273, bug

Description




java version "1.3.0rc3"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0rc3-z)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0rc3-z, mixed mode)

I use Widows 98 Taiwan version.
After I install Java2 1.3 RC3, I go to Control Panel, and then
I double click the "Java Plug-in" icon.
The glyph for every Chinese word is not correct. I can't read it at all.

I went to http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/earlyAccess/j2sdk13/index.html
but didn't find any localized version for Chinese or Taiwan. My encoding
rule is Big-5, so I can't use Japanese version. 

I tried the jre1.3 internationalized, it is still wrong. I
send the screen shot to you, you may know what's the problem.
And more, the bug seems to affect some UI, too. I send you the screen shot
of FontSelection.java in Tutorial. It can find out the Chinese fonts(not all, there should be some
trouble), show sample string on the screen, but can't show the font name on the menu item(see the
menu focus).

HI,

I am just wondering if I am being troubled by this.I am 
also using Taiwan windows 98.

I am using a swing component which accepts chinese 
(taiwanese) characters and I am printing them on to the 
plug in console. Some how on the console I am getting junk 
characters.

JRE 1.3.0_01 is not a workaround for this bug, your bug rpt 
system is out of control !!!!


I've download the new JRE 1.3.0_01 Java  software, our OS 
is Windows98(gb Chinese) ,
after I installed the software, same as under JRE 1.3 ---I 
found the Plug-in control panel can't be started in the 
control panel , and the Applet can't use the JRE  in 
Internet Explorer, after run the on line system which 
supported by JRE , all of Internet Explorer sensions was 
shut down and can not access any software, hv to restart 
windows.
As I check the Registry Form of Windows, I find that the 
registry key in the Form is same as in JRE 1.3 --- nothing 
wrong in 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE'-'SOFTWARE'-JAVASOFT'
item, it's in ENGLISH ( not in Chinese), 'Java Plug-
in\1.3.0_01  (  JavaHome  / C:\Program 
Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.0_01 )   and 'Java Runtime 
Environment\1.3.0_01 (RuntimeLib-  C:\Program 
Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.0_01\bin\hotspot\jvm.dll ) 

And as I check the C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.0_01
\bin  , found all of .exe files in it can not be run , show 
error , but can not be watch due to too quick flash !!  I 
already attach all of them for your reference.

I'v already submitted the bug rpt under JRE 1.3 (Review ID: 
116332)  to you but get your revert  said -- same as bug id 
4346273 and 4389955,  The workaround is part of release 
1.3.0_01, which is available as an alternate
download at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3.0_01/. xxxxx@xxxxx
