[ http://jira.qos.ch/browse/CAL-13?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issue... ] Gilles commented on CAL-13: --------------------------- I've found the origin of the problem: "java.text.MessageFormat" disallows single quotes (as they are used to quote an opening curly bracket). To output a single quote, one must represent it as two successive single quotes in the pattern string. The CAL10N documentation could warn about this "problem" (that will make the localization data files will be a bit ugly), although it does it already, indirectly: ---CUT--- The default IMessageConveyor implementation, namely MessageConveyor, uses the standard Java convention for parameter substitution as defined by the java.text.MessageFormat class. ---CUT---

[ http://jira.qos.ch/browse/CAL-13?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issue... ] Gilles commented on CAL-13: --------------------------- Alternatively the parser code could check whether the single quote actually quotes a left curly bracket and, if not, append a second single quote. Hence one could use single quote normally (from the point of view of someone writing localized messages). And if a left bracket is needed in the output, the pattern string should be: <'{'> (without the enclosing angle brackets). This would depart from the "MessageFormat" convention and be somewhat asymmetric since to obtain {0} in the output, one would need a pattern such as '{'0} However this will happen much less often than the use of single quotes.
