------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Oct 17 16:25:39 +0000 2008 ------- If the license text of an extension has more than around 65500 characters the license window shows a blank text without scrolling facility. Then it is not possible to install the extension. I did this test because the french version of LGPL is 37874 characters. If an author wants to show the user two or more licenses (e.g. one for the program and one for included images), the 65K limit will be broken. With all legal problems, a single license text may in the future grow over the 65K limit. Note that the bug may only appear on lengthy languages (french, german). In Basic dialogs, control texts don't handle more than 65500 characters. This is probably a limitation of awt. The Developer's Guide on Simple license should signal this limit until the problem is resolved. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
