Description Ken Frank 2007-02-14 19:48:50 UTC 
In components logic,1.jar file, some dir names have spaces ie
windows linux solaris-sparc solaris-x86 macosx-ppc macosx-x86

I think since there are sometimes problems in general with spaces,
and since on solaris its more complex to note and navigate dirs
with spaces in it, that it can be problems for loclaization work.
And that often work is done on solaris, not windows.


I put this in ide component subcat since that is the only one I can see
but I think the spaces naming is common to other components - so should
this subcat be changed to something more general ?

Is there a reason why spaces are needed in these dir names ?

Unfortunately spaces there are a necessity, since we literally have run out of separator characters for filenames (which
are complex). OTOH I can't see why you need to browse this for l10n work once we have a correct l10n lit creation set
up, etc. I will close the issue as WONTFIX.
