Hi Sergey, The webrev is updated with using System.lineSeparator() instead of System.getProperty("line.separator").
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rchamyal/ambarish/8055197/webrev.01/ Reason for using array: System.lineSeparator() differs platform wise. Windows: \r\n Linux: \n Mac: \r But '\n' is a generic new line character, which programmers can add manually in string as, "Row1 \n Row2" To handle this case, have added it in array. There is also a bug reported for this case, https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7186036 : TextField class does not show text after CR on Windows Similarly '\r' can also be considered, but '\r' is not commonly used & Also presence of '\r' in string does not result in truncation of text.

What is the reason to use this array? {System.getProperty("line.separator"), "\n"} Why we cannot use only the System.getProperty("line.separator") or which is simpler the System.lineSeparator(); On 14.10.15 19:44, Ambarish Rapte wrote: > Dear All, > > Please review the patch for jdk9. > Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8055197 > Webrev: > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rchamyal/ambarish/8055197/webrev.00/ > > > Issue: > - If text containing new line character is set to TextField, Text after > new line character was terminated. > - Issue occurs only on windows. > > Cause: > - For windows new line character is ā\r\nā. > - For windows code this new line character was not replaced by space > character. > - Other platforms replace the EOL character by space character. > > Fix: > - Added code to TextComponent.java to remove EOL on java side before > passing to peer. > => Added a private method replaceEOL() , which replaces EOL by space. > => removeEOL will be called by newly added TextComponent > construcotr and setText() > > - The text variable on in TextComponent.java & on string displayed on > native side will be same. > > > > Many Thanks, > Ambarish > -- Best regards, Sergey.
