Nicolas Malin commented on OFBIZ-13167:
---------------------------------------
Ah, I write the ticket to have a good spot on the problem, but right not sure
that match well the actual.
Unit test are the truth, not my quick bad describe ^^', I will update the
commit message to match with the reality
> Truncate string with special character
> --------------------------------------

> Key: OFBIZ-13167
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13167
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: framework/widget
> Reporter: Nicolas Malin
> Assignee: Nicolas Malin
> Priority: Minor
>
> On model form, when you use a field description with a text size like :
> {code:java}
> <form...>
> <field name="myfield" ...><display size="10"/></field>
> </form>{code}
> and your field myField contains a string with a special character like "my
> char é, so bad truncate", the widget rendering displays "my char &e..."
> because when truncate is executed, the string is encoded and some chars are
> encoded : "my char &eacut;, so bad truncate".
> The size between the encoded string and the displayed string are different.
> So to fix this, we implemented a new method to truncate the content. This
> method identify each special char as one char, and truncate.
> "my char é, so bad truncate" encoded to "my char &eacut;, so bad truncate"
> become "my char &eacut;..." and not "my char &e..."
