Localized Role names

Bill,

I have appended a patch to bug #128343 to fix build issues with JABG after recent API additions to AT-SPI.

I have a concern about the localized name for the role. I assume that this localized name should be the same
for GTK and Java applications. It seems to me that the best way to achieve this is for AT-SPI to get same
"English" name for the role from Java or GTK and do the translation in AT-SPI instead of in ATK and Java.

This would be contrary to the current API - particularly since Java 
'always' localizes role names.  I also don't see how this can work with 
the (proposed) mechanism for registering new role names (with both a 
non-localized and localized string).  I think we need 
atk_role_register_localized (gchar *name, gchar *localized_name);

I do not believe that it is critical for the translations (e.g. 
localized role names) in Java and ATK to be identical (though of course 
one would prefer that they be the same).

Java allows you to get the English name for a role. 
role.toDisplayString(java.util.Locale.US);

The JABG currently returns a role of "application". As this role does not exist in Java it looks like the JABG
will need to figure out how to localize this. As far as I know this is currently the only string in the JABG
which needs to be localized.

I assume you mean patch 113096 and not 1113096.

Patches that have not been released via sunsolve (such as test patches) can
be found here:

http://sunsoftpatch.sfbay/patchstatus/

I notice that patch 113096 is available there.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for help, but it seem to be not working this site for me.

Re: Re: XEvIE

I had absolutely no problem downloading the 113096-03 patch from the
http://sunsoftpatch.sfbay/patchstatus/ website.  Did you not login?
You can only download patches if you login.  Or perhaps the website
was temporarily down.  If so, it is back up right now.

Re: Re: XEvIE

Hi Brian,
I did not login. At which user I can login? Where I can login or where I can 
create a new account. From our system the server http://sunsoftpatch.sfbay 
unreachable. Or could you put the patch on a visible server for our to.
Thanks,

Best Regards
