Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4796:
-------------------------------------------
I'm considering writing a test that would tell us about such problems when
updating the messages in the future. Where would such a test go? In a JUnit
suite? I'm not all that keen on writing code to get all message files known to
the classloader... The easier option is probably to make a check at build time,
for which we have some kind of precedence with MessageBundleTest. I think I'll
go for the latter option, and if it turns out to slow down the build
unacceptably, we can consider moving it to a JUnit suite later.
> Missing escape for apostrophes in many messages

> Key: DERBY-4796
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4796
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Localization
> Affects Versions: 10.6.1.0
> Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen
> Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen
> Attachments: engine-messages.diff
>
>
> The properties file format requires that single-quote characters are escaped
> with an extra single-quote. A number of messages don't follow this rule.
> Take this example from the Italian localization:
> 42X34=Esiste un parametro ? nell'elenco di selezione. Ci\u00F2 non \u00E8
> consentito.
> Note that there's only a single apostrophe in "nell'elenco" above. When this
> message is printed, the apostrophe will be omitted:
> $ LC_ALL=it_IT.UTF-8 java -jar derbyrun.jar ij
> Versione ij 10.6
> ij> connect 'jdbc:derby:db;create=true';
> ij> select ? from sys.systables;
> ERRORE 42X34: Esiste un parametro ? nellelenco di selezione. Ciò non è
> consentito.
> We should go through the message files and add extra apostrophes where they
> are missing.
