Spanish accent characters are not rendered properly [message #635464]

Our GUI application is using swt version 3.346 and running on windows XP. We need to localize our app for different locales like Spanish, french and italian. The real problem is when we use accent characters they are not rendered properly. I see all of them as big zero. I have no clue if this is bug in swt or if i have some lack of understanding of the text rendering.

Heres a snippet of code that does the text rendering on a button.

if (!Tools.isLinux() && l.p.sombra) {
if (l.p.sombraFg!=null) gcS.setForeground(l.p.sombraFg);
if (l.p.sombraAntialias!=0) {
try {
if (Tools.isComplexGraphicsEnable())
gcS.setAntialias(l.p.sombraAntialias);
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
Tools.setComplexGraphicsEnable(false);
/** se pueden producir excepciones en algunos windows y en linux*/
}
}
if (l.p.sombraAlpha!=0) {
try {
if (Tools.isComplexGraphicsEnable())
gcS.setAlpha(l.p.sombraAlpha);
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
Tools.setComplexGraphicsEnable(false);
/** se pueden producir excepciones en algunos windows y en linux*/
}
}
gcS.drawText(l.p.text,px+l.p.sombraDx,py+l.p.sombraDy,l.p.tr ansparente);
}
if (l.p.fg!=null) gcS.setForeground(l.p.fg);
if (l.p.bg!=null) {
gcS.setForeground(l.p.bg);
gcS.drawRoundRectangle(myArea.x,myArea.y,myArea.width-1,myAr ea.height-1,10,10);
}
if (l.p.antialias!=0) {
try {
if (Tools.isComplexGraphicsEnable())
gcS.setAntialias(l.p.antialias);
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
Tools.setComplexGraphicsEnable(false);
/** se pueden producir excepciones en algunos windows y en linux*/
}
}
if (l.p.alpha!=0) {
try {
if (Tools.isComplexGraphicsEnable())
gcS.setAlpha(l.p.alpha);
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
Tools.setComplexGraphicsEnable(false);
/** se pueden producir excepciones en algunos windows y en linux*/
}
}

gcS.drawText(l.p.text,px,py,l.p.transparente);

Could this be a bug?

Any ideas or pointers are appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Can you please open a bug report under SWT so that it can be investigated --> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform &component=SWT
Please include a SWT snippet with sample text in the bug report.

Thanks,

Lakshmi P Shanmugam

I would first suggest trying a recent SWT/Eclipse release like 3.6.1 if
possible. There have been a lot of bug fixes between the version you're
using an more recent ones.
