Pavitra Subramaniam commented on TRINIDAD-2116:
-----------------------------------------------
A simple way to see the current behavior is to update one of the english locale
messages in MessageBundle.xrts. For e.g., I changed the following resource key.
This message gets used on the client side validation checks by the date time
converter.
<resource
key="org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.convert.DateTimeConverter.CONVERT_DATE_detail">l''exemple
: {2}</resource>
Similarly change a resource key string that gets formatted on the server side,
such as
<resource
key="org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.validator.DateTimeRangeValidator.NOT_IN_RANGE_detail">The
d''ate must be between {2} and {3}.</resource>
> ResourceBundles Strings containing doubled single quotes are not properly
> formatted by FastMessageFormat on display...

>
> The translations tool used by the WPTG team that provides translations for
> the Strings in the ResourceBundle uses special processing for single
> quotation marks, common in languages such as French. In ResourceBundle files,
> if a message contains an argument placeholder, e.g. {0} or {1}, it is assumed
> to be a format pattern for MessageFormat and the translation tool
> automatically doubles all single quotes inside such a message. If the message
> contains no arguments, it is expected to be used directly after loading from
> the bundle, without processing with MessageFormat. Therefore, no quotes are
> doubled automatically in such a message. This code change accounts for the
> presence of doubled quotes.
> Now FastMessageFormat.java and its counterpart on the client
> TrFastMessageFormatUtils object (Locale.js) assumes simple formatting rules
> and does not account for the presence of doubled single quotes. So this means
> that for some messages French users continue to see doubled quotes when
> single quotes are more the norm, For e.g., instead of
> Entrez une date avec le même format que l'exemple suivant : 01/02/2011
> they see something like
> Entrez une date avec le même format que l''exemple suivant : 01/02/2011
> (Notice the doubled quotes in l''exemple)
