Hi there everyone,

I have built a multilanguage application by closely following the instructions given in https://eclipsescout.github.io/scout-docs/23.2/sdk/sdk-eclipse.html#sec-sdk_nls for translated text entries.

However, in the last three 3 days my TEXT.nls file becomes "corrupted" anytime I add a new entry. For example, I have the following entries in the file:

Account status
Activated
Active
Active employee
Actual state

This is how the translated entries are presented, even after I correctly typed the translations (see attachment):

�tat du compte
Activ�
En activit�
Salari� en activit�
�tat actuelle

I've deleted my project and restored from backups at least 15 times already over the last three days and each time I make the necessary changes and then try to run the application from the IDE, I notice that the TEXT.nls file is corrupted and the accented French characters are garbled.

But in the TEXTS_fr.properties file, the entries are correct !!!!!

And finally, when I try to RUN the application in the Eclipse IDE, I get a message box error that says

Exception occurred executing command line.
Cannot run program "/home/jd/eclipse-scout-ygapp-workspace/ygapp/ygapp/run-configs/js build.sh" (in directory "/home/jd/eclipse-scout-ygapp-workspace/ygapp/ygapp.ui.html"): error=13, Permission non accordée

I really don't know what to do anymore, and I'm really hoping someone here can help me get to the bottom of this matter.

Thanks for your kind assistance.

Cheers,

JD

Hi J D

Seems you missed the migration of the .properties files when migrating to 23.2.

Have a look at the migration guide.

The migration consists of basically 4 steps:

Migrate your existing .properties files from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8
Migrate your own code loading/storing .properties files to use UTF-8 (if you have such code)
Update your IDE settings to use UTF-8 for .properties files.
Update .editorconfig file

Maybe you missed a step (my guess is step 3 is missing)? Try the following:

Restore your .properties files from the backup. Afterwards follow the steps in the migration guide again. Please also ensure to execute step 3: Check Window -> Preferences -> General -> Content Types -> Text -> Java Properties File: At the bottom please update the "Default encoding" to "UTF-8" and press update. Afterwards close all NLS editors and reopen them again. Now it should work as expected.

Hope this helps

Kind regards
Mat
