FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0-beta2"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-beta2-b86)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-beta2-b86, mixed mode, sharing)
ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
JDK 6 beta2
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The ampersand character is not displayed in the TrayIcon tooltip.
The same String is displayed well with TrayIcon.displayMessage() which accepts Strings just like TrayIcon.setTooltip() or TrayIcon's constructor.
Additional information: seeing the same bug on 2 different computers with
java6 beta2, same windows XP. Same effect when compiling and running
inside Eclipse, or the command line (javac, java)
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. compile the class below
2. save an image for the systray icon as c:\trayicon.png
3. run the class (java ampersand_error)
4. see the systray bubble showing: -&- (it's good)
5. see the tooltip on the systray icon, the & char is not displayed but
the others are. You actually see only: -- (it's wrong, & is
missing)
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
tooltip output: -&-
ACTUAL -
tooltip output: --
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
