i use LiveCode 6.0 community edition, when i try to make a label in the GUI using an Arabic text it displays it, but from left to right not from right to left[RTL] .
is it possible to display a text in LiveCode using RTL?
Not yet unfortunately. Last time I looked into this I think you could set the text to some RTL text but you couldn't enter it RTL. Could be wrong as the project was put aside as soon as text entry was found to be LTR only.
Economy-x-Talk has a commercial custom software solution. It is fairly limited and I don't know if it is something for you but you could contact us at http://economy-x-talk.com.
LiveCode 7.0 will contain support for RTL languages. This is in development and a beta is expected in March 2014.
LiveCode 7.0.0 developer preview is now available for download:
http://downloads.livecode.com/livecode/
It is the first version to natively support LTR languages and unicode.
To achieve this, several new chunk expressions have been introduced. Most importantly, the
trueWord chunk expression can process text based the ICU library with its many rules taking into account many language and charset.
Please be careful, it is still a DP

I am using EA 12.0 Corporate edition Built 1215 - Unicode with database version 4.01 and I have the following problem.
When I type one of theses characters: "ě č ř" and then save and reopen diagram the characters are replaced by e c r. Same thing happens if I just copy element with these characters (shown on example image bellow).
Here are more information:
Doesn't matter where are the characters typed. It could be at notes, properties, model, package, diagram, element... just anywhere
It happens when diagram is reopened or the element is just copied.
Doesn't matter if it is new project or existing
I tried different versions of EA (11, 12.1, 13) and it also has no effect
Doesn't matter if using "JET 4.0" (Options > general > "Use JET 4.0 - requires restart")
I have to use EA, so workaround using different program will not help.
Thank you for any information, any help is appreciated.

I think you not only have to turn the flag Use Jet 4.0 on, but you also need a 4.0 startermodel.
Now you are probably using the right driver on the wrong (v3.5) database.
IIRC you can download one from the Sparx website.
I had the same problem and all you have to do is to change your non-Unicode language Windows preference to your local.
Were looking at building a Chinese site (Traditional and Simplified) in Sitecore and was wondering where the possibilities for supporting the search.
From what I have been able to gather so far:
Lucene doesn't support it out of the box but can be extended through development or third party to allow Chinese search
dtSearch should support it but from what I've been able to find it is unreliable/untested.
Does anyone have any experience using Chinese language in Sitecore and performing searches?
Has anyone had any experience implementing Chinese into Lucene?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Phil
Cove Enterprise Search supports Chinese and integrates well with Sitecore. You should double check their full language support list if you have other needs.

Supported languages on Page 4:

Sitecore 7 ContentSearch features could help you out of the troubles; the search functionality supports many different languages including Chinese, Arabic, and non-UTF based characters.
I have tried to search Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) in sitecore 7 backend search tab. If you have played sitecore 7, you may notice that every content item has a new search tab. You can try to create a content item with 2 different language versions (zh-TW, zh-CN: Traditional, Simplified), then search some Chinese keyword in the search tab, it works fine.
For different language analyzers configuration, please find the Sitecore.ContentSearch.Lucene.DefaultIndexConfiguration.config in the App_Config/Include folder, there already defined many language analyzers for searching, you can also add the Chinese analyzer (Luncene.Net.Analysis.Cn.ChineseAnalyzer).
There is a "developer's_guide_to_item_buckets_and search_sc7" document on the sdn site(http://sdn.sitecore.net), it provides more details.
Hope these can help you.
I am trying to target a Blackberry application to multiple devices, since there are advanced graphics needed. I would like to avoid writing multiple versions (as suggested here). The target is OS version 5.0, and so far it works as expected on storm2 simulator.
The issue is when I run it on the Bold simulator, the EditFields are not accepting input from the keyboard.
I can't seem to find any example how actually go about supporting multiple devices.
Thanks,
MD
There are a lot of good links in this question.
In particular, Marc's answer contains links to actual projects which support many OS versions that you can explore and mimic.
Use only the components available to 4.5 and it should work on all different OS versions.
Or make your own custom components.
What's the best free replacement for TSynEdit? As I can see, it is developed very slow. Want to find some replacement for it. Or, may be, the version from another maintainer.
Need Delphi 2010 compatibility.
SynEdit works fine under D2010. There's one notable bug involving the Enter key not working under certain conditions. A patch for it can be found about halfway down the page on this thread. Search for // GB: BUG FIXED
Aside from that, it should work. Are you having some specific issues with it?
You can try out Scintilla. As of version 2.x it supports "virtual space" (most important feature for me - after syntax highlighting) and has more features like CodeFolding, Annotations http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDoc.html#Annotations, MultipleSelections, and many more.
AFAIK there is no wrapper for Delphi that is up-to-date and works with Unicode/D2009+.
I've created a project at http://code.google.com/p/dscintilla/ which should be in 'beta stage' in a week (or so).
I have never used SynEdit myself, but have always believed it to be the best free open-source advanced editor component for Delphi. Because it is open-source, you can yourself alter it to suit your needs.
We're going to be building some J2ME apps and Java/Rails webapps which will have a Kannada(a south indian language, for those who don't know much about India) UI. The UI and the data will both be in Kannada for these apps.
So, we will need to write code containing some of these language text in the source code. I find it irritating that neither emacs nor XEmacs OR Jedit can edit any of these languages :-(
Someone mentioned that a variant of Emacs can do it except I don't know if it works on Windows and where to get hold of it.
I know notepad can do the trick BUT it's not a programmer's editor.
P.S : I am an EMacs guy but will be open to using other programmer editors.
P.P.S : This should work on Windows Vista/Windows 7. I wouldn't mind using VirtualBox or VMWare to boot into Linux to use an Linux Editor, if that is the only option I have!
So, we will need to write code containing some of these language text in the source code.
I think any Windows editor that supports UTF-8 will be able to do this. There should be plenty to choose from.
I'm the as the author of the Zeus editor and just recently UTF-8 support was added so I would expect Zeus should be able to do exactly this. But if it doesn't feel free to report a bug on the Zeus forum.
P.S : I am an EMacs guy but open to using other programmer editors in this situation.
Zeus has a Emacs keyboard emulation mode ;)
Considering it's Java you're using: Have you tried Eclipse? I know it's not an editor and might be a little overkill when one is used to Emacs, but it uses SWT which in turn uses the OS's native font rendering. And at least my browser shows that the Uniscribe can display Kannada just fine.
Another option might be Notepad++.
