Description pknakal 2001-06-01 10:23:54 UTC

From localization point of view is better to move some manifest attributes to
special Bundle.properties file. The manifest attributes which should be moved to
Bundle.properties file are attributes which are displayes to the user and have
to be translated in the localized versions. This helps to localizations teams
... Bundle.properties files are more intuitiv. Thank's. Pat

Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2001-06-18 11:38:13 UTC

Just improving the summary line.

Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2001-07-16 01:25:32 UTC

Probably implemented in the trunk, needs to be documented, tests
written, and used in some cases at least.

Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2001-07-19 15:28:52 UTC

Yes, it is implemented and now documented; you can look at
innertesters module as an example of how to use it.

Comment 4 Jan Zajicek 2001-07-24 11:07:28 UTC

verified in innertesters

Comment 5 Mike Schilling 2001-08-29 21:45:55 UTC

Noting that this is necessary due to JDK bug 4260472 (entered by Jesse Glick!); the 
java.util.Jar classes for reading and writing manifests do not handle non-ASCII 
characters correctly.

Comment 6 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 16:28:28 UTC

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
