Description viewfinder 2012-02-12 02:20:55 UTC 
Can't input double-byte Asian languages at all. I've tried traditional Chinese and Japanese and both don't work. I can only paste double-byte text in.

I'm using Mac OS X 10.7.3.

Could you please run swing demo notepad

java -jar $jdk/demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar

and test the input there? Thanks.

I entered that exact command, but got "Unable to access jarfile /demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar" error

Do I need to change the path?
Comment 3 Milutin Kristofic 2012-03-13 13:35:55 UTC 
You need to fill variable $jdk, or replace it by real path to jdk.
For example I have jdk on ubuntu in /usr/lib/java-6-sun so I can run such command as java -jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar

I couldn't find the Notepad.jar any where, but I think I know where the problem is now. I tried another java app (Freemind) and the same thing happened. So it's not with the NetBeans. It's with the java. No idea how to fix that though.
