Your gut feeling was right  |
Instead of implementing subclasses of ListResourceBundle you create several
properties files (one for each language you want to support):
your/package/MyBeanRB.properties:
# default language (english) resources
title=Book title
....
your/package/MyBeanRB_fr.properties:
# french language resources
title=title de livre
.....
your/package/MyBeanRB_de.properties:
# german language resources
title=Buchtitel
.....
You'll have to deploy these .properties-files together with your .class
files. Most commonly this means, you put them into the same jar file.
From within your MyBean class you create the localized resource bundle once
by:
static ResourceBundle resBundle =
ResourceBundle.getBundle("your.package.MyBeanRB");
(You don't append a language suffix here. Java will magically find and read
the appropriate .properties file)
Later you can get specific resources, for example:
String title = resBundle.getString("title");

Excellent, it works. Donno why I did not think of adding RB to my
properties test files. Thanks :)

Sorry, I can't debug invisible code.
If you really can't come up with a way to show us the code in a way
that won't compromise your integrity, then I recommend going through
the exercise of trimming down the code until the problem goes away.
If you get down to a tiny amount of code and you still have the
problem, it should be easier to debug.
By the way, when I have a problem with live code and need help, I
often try to create an entirely new coding project that uses the same
java libraries as the code that's not workin for me. This way it's
unlikely that anything proprietary will slip through the cracks. It
also helps me convince myself that the problem really is where I think
it is.

The latter. There is never, ever, ever anything wrong with USENET as a
whole. That's because there is no physical device or network connection
or set thereof anywhere that you can point to and say "That is USENET,
and if it all fails, USENET will cease to exist!" If every computer
that ran a news server anywhere except for one on the beaches of a
remote Pacific island were to suddenly die, that last computer would
still be able to post to USENET... there just wouldn't be anyone to get
the messages.
Okay, so that's too much information...

Why are you using AWT components instead of Swing? I'm not telling you
what to do, I'm just asking out of curiosity. |

you have to change a bit showDlg():
public void showDlg() {
if (myDialog == null) {
// Set The Applet as owner
final Frame f = findFrame(this);
final Window [] d = new Window[1];
if (f != null) {
f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
if(d[0] == null || d[0] != f) {
myDialog.toFront();
}
}
});
System.out.println("Found Frame");
myDialog = new Dialog(f, false);
myDialog.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
d[0] = e.getOppositeWindow();
}
public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {
d[0] = e.getOppositeWindow();
}
});
myDialog.add(new Label("Hello "), BorderLayout.NORTH);
myDialog.add(new Button("OK"), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
myDialog.pack();
myDialog.show();
}
}

because you can't change Object declared as final.

Your init function is ok.
You probably changed something else.
Post your complete code.

There is a problem with this fix.
Assume I have a textarea below the button.
i.e.
my init is function is
public void init() {
b = new Button("Press me");
b.addActionListener(this);
TextArea t = new TextArea(1,25);
add(b);
add(t);
show();
}
Now once the dialog has been activated it always
has input focus - I can never type text into the
textarea - i.e. the dialog behaves like a modal dialog.

Here is my complete code.
Now the dialog is always on front when the browser
is in front. However, I can never type anything into
the textarea.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.Applet;
public class MyTest extends Applet implements ActionListener{
private Button b;
private Dialog myDialog;
private TextArea t;
public void init() {
b = new Button("Press me");
b.addActionListener(this);
t = new TextArea(1,25);
add(b);
add(t);
show();
}
private Frame findFrame(Component c) {
for (; c != null; c = c.getParent()) {
if (c instanceof Frame) {
return (Frame) c;
}
}
return null;
}
public void RF()
{t.requestFocus();}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
if ( e.getSource() == b ) {
showDlg();
}
}
public void showDlg() {
if (myDialog == null) {
// Set The Applet as owner
final Frame f = findFrame(this);
final Window [] d = new Window[1];
if (f != null) {
f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
if(d[0] == null || d[0] != f) {
myDialog.toFront();
RF();
}
}
});
myDialog = new Dialog(f, false);
myDialog.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
d[0] = e.getOppositeWindow();
}
public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {
d[0] = e.getOppositeWindow();
}
});
myDialog.add(new Label("Hello "), BorderLayout.NORTH);
myDialog.add(new Button("OK"), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
myDialog.pack();
myDialog.show();
}
}

<code snipped>
this is strange, because on windows it has expected behavior.
It works also without t.requestFocus();
Since I don't have mac I can't give you another solution.

I would start by updating the jvm on you machine
currently the version should 1.5
and your os should be 10.4.6
apple have been doing some work on the swing interface
