Resource Bundle Error

[Bob the BlueBerry]

Hi. I'm trying to get RSyntaxTextArea to work for an application I'm working on, but there is this error I get every time RTextArea initializes.

SEVERE: Exception in thread Thread-3:
java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name org.fife.ui.rtextarea.RTextArea, locale en_CA

at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:1234)
... 9 more

The error is caused by this:

Code: Select all

ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle(RESOURCE_BUNDLE); /* RESOURCE_BUNDLE is "org.fife.ui.rtextarea.RTextArea", this class*/

See how it says that RTextArea can't be cast to ResoureBundle?

Code: Select all

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.fife.ui.rtextarea.RTextArea cannot be cast to ResourceBundle

I don't really know what's going on and why it's configured this way, so I can't fix it myself. It seems weird that no one else seems to be getting this sort of error.

If you could help, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hi Bob,

You must not have grabbed the i18n folder in the RSyntaxTextArea source. That folder contains all of the localized property files for the text area. If you don't have that, then when your program tries to find localized values for "Cut", "Copy", etc., it can't find them. Java's fallback is to try to find a class named "RTextArea.class" that extends ResourceBundle, but of course in RSyntaxTextArea, that isn't the case, as that is the main text editor class.

Please check whether you have the i18n folder's contents on your classpath when running your app, and let me know if you still have problems.

[Bob the BlueBerry]

Oh. So that's what the i18n folder is for.
I merged the i18n folder and the source and it works great.

Thanks!

No problem. Check out the Java tutorial on localization for more information:

I just downloaded the 2.0.0beta2 release (just jars) of the autocomplete and rsyntaxarea, and I am getting this issue.

[robert]

Hmm, there must be some other problem. The localization files are definitely in the 2.0.0-beta2 jars. Can you post a simple demo application that demonstrates the problem, so I can reproduce it?

[seiyria]

http://pastebin.com/uGARbxnE is the code I can run to test it. I have the two beta jars on my classpath, as well.
[edit]
It requires a script to be alongside it.. so: http://pastebin.com/qXXYq394 would work, saved as aliases.js

Hi,
I use Eclipse.
I had also this problem with the jar.
So I included the i18n directory (which is however in the jar) in my project and included/referred this directory in "Source folders on build path" (project properties).

This works.

I hope it'll help.

I appreciate the reply, but unfortunately this didn't fix it for me.

Hmm, that sample in pastebin seems incomplete (missing imports), and is complicated by mixing SWT with Swing (not that that should matter). Can you run this example in your environment and reproduce the problem?

Can you verify the checksum of your jar file to verify the download worked okay? I just downloaded the binary zip for beta2 from SourceForge and get:

Code: Select all

C:\temp>cksum rsyntaxtextarea.jar
2609158006 721249 rsyntaxtextarea.jar
