User interface translation and Help content translation as
displayed in the GNOME Help browser is not complete in this release of the
Java Desktop System. See Table 1–3 for the rollout
of localization for the Java Desktop System Release 2.
-
This release of the Java Desktop System includes many localized
versions of applications that are taken from the GNOME community. Sun Microsystems
does not take any responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of these
localizations.
-
You cannot print out documents from Mozilla
that contain non-BMP Unicode characters.
-
This release of the Java Desktop System only supports the
HKSCS-1999 version of the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set (HKSCS), due
to the version of glibc
that the system uses. Support
for HKSCS-2001 is planned for a future release of the Java Desktop System.
The differences between HKSCS-1999 and HKSCS-2001 are as follows:
-
HKSCS-1999 uses ISO-10646/Unicode PUA (Private Use Area) to
assign code for additional characters defined in HKSCS that were not part
of ISO-10646/Unicode as of 1999, and is not, and will not be an official part
of ISO-10646/Unicode.
-
HKSCS-2001 uses ISO-10646/Unicode Plane 2 for the same characters
defined in HKSCS-1999 instead of PUA, because the HKSCS character repertoire
is accepted as an official part of ISO-10646/Unicode.
-
HKSCS-2001 supports an additional 116 characters over HKSCS-1999.
Since code assignment between HKSCS-1999 and HKSCS-2001 is different,
although ISO-10646/Unicode with HKSCS-1999 works in this release of the Java
Desktop System, any documents using characters in HKSCS-1999 need code conversion,
as if they are written in legacy encodings such as EUC or Big5, to interchange
with the systems using ISO-10646/Unicode with HKSCS-2001.
The version of glibc
that supports HKSCS-2001
is available for download for this release of the Java Desktop System, together
with the HKSCS-1999 to HKSCS-2001 code converter.
