31589 - vCard categories "HTML Mail" and "Work" display corrupted when translated into Japanese

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect, P3)

Description

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

** Observed with 3/10/2000 Win32 build **

Thi sproblem was discovered on a Japanese Labg pack build.
When you translate the following items into Japanese:

# VCARD_LDAP_FAX_TYPE
1010=XXXX

# VCARD_LDAP_WORK_TYPE
1006=YYYY

# VCARD_LDAP_USEHTML
1048=ZZZZ

you get "diamond symbols" instead of the real Japanese characters. 

The file is: vcard.properties in escaped Unicode.

Some other strings used by vCard file seems to be OK when translated.
(I don't have an example where all the strings used in the vCard 
  display and so I can't give you a complete listing.)

Use the 2nd test message in the Intl Smoketest file which contains
a vCard sample.

We probably need to keep these items in English for JPN Beta 1.

Attachment: vcard.properties file for JPN -- use this instead of the US file with the English build.

Comment 2

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

You can see the problem with the above attachment (vcard.properties file).
The 3 items mentioned are in Japanese encoded in escaped Unicode.

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

Corrected the summary since the "Fax" example was made up
for a debugging purpose but not tranalsted in the JPN Lang pack.

Comment 5

The workaround bug for JA Beta is: Bug 31590.

Ok, I have this fixed in my tree, BUT there is another bug (Bug #: 31748) which 
is preventing me from seeing the buttons to expand the vcard. I hacked it up to 
fix this problem, but obviously we need the other fix before this is working 
again 100%.

Will verify when Bug 31748 is fixed. At present, we cannot
see the "expand" button.

Comment 12

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

For some reason, the resolution is showing up as blank.
I'll re-open and resolve it again to see "fixed".

Comment 13

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

This time it should work. Marking it "fixed".

Comment 14

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

Sorry, this has slipped through since I was away in Japan
during the ast half of April.
I checked this bug against 5/10/2000 Win32 build 
with the modified vacrd.properties file. 
The original porblem reported here is now fixed. 
I found another bug in vCard display but will file
as a separate bug.

Marking it verified as fixed.

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

** Re-checked with 7/5/2000 Win32 M17 build **

For some strange reason, this problem is now back. 
The problem was definitely fixed at M15. But with the above
build, using the same file I attached above for
vcard.properties file, Work and Fax categoruy names
are not showing as Japanese any more. "Use HTML" seems
to be OK, however.

This is needed for proper localization into other
langauges for Beta 2. As this is a regression from M15/PR1, I
will mark this nsbeta2.

Comment 16

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

Putting on [nsbeta2+] radar for beta2 fix. 

Comment 17

[rhp (gone)]

Ok, I fixed this one. 

Naoki: it was that change you made. You may want to re-address that problem 
that was "fixed" by your change in mimevcrd.cpp. That flag is there 
specifically to address this bug.

Okay, we need to convert the value separately from the label before they are 
combined.
Momoi san, could you find the old bug about full-width phone number bug and 
reopend it?

Comment 19

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

is this really fixed? With 7/25/2000 Win32 build, I still see the same problem as before.

Comment 20

[rhp (gone)]

You're gonna have to help me out here. What is wrong with the attached image?

Comment 21

[rhp (gone)]

Attachment: This is what I see for vCard display

Comment 22

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

There is nothing wrong with the category names. 
Seems this is not the bug I should have re-opened. 
But I think there was a bug about the JPN
numbers not showing correctly for Phone and Fx categories.

Please take a look teh image below and see if you recall that bug.

Comment 23

[Katsuhiko Momoi]

Attachment: Phone & Fax numbers in JPN cannot be seen as numbers in this image.

Comment 24

[rhp (gone)]

No, I don't know what bug that is. Please close this bug out and reopen a new 
one so I don't have red flags on my name as we try to close out nsbeta2+ 
issues.

I'm marking this fixed. If you are referring to a different issue, please open 
a new bug.

Comment 27

Sorry, Rich. It was Bug 21743 which should have been re-opened.
