[Jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-186) JBoss IDE swallows "]" keypressings in Java editor

Ingemar Allkvist commented on JBIDE-186:
----------------------------------------

1) this is a pretty serious problem if you're on a non US Keyboard, german, swedish etc. Imagine writing a Java-program without being able to enter a '}' or ']'. Unfortunatly, it renders the product useless for many european locales...

2) The problem is still there on IDE 1.5.0M2

3) They did some further analysis on the eclipse site (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=94249).

> Note: this bug only appears if german keyboard layout is selected.
> If JBoss IDE is enabled in Eclipse I am unable to type "]" (on german keyboard layout you have to press AltGr + "9" or Strg + Alt + "9") in the java editor. This is the only key affected, I noticed.
> Disabling the JBoss IDE removes the problem.
> Changing the keyboard layout to english allows entering "]" without any problems (but if your keyboard is printed with the german layout this isn't a solution.
