I have an RCP application which I build using the .product file and PDE. In my product file I create a binary launcher for different applications to provide convenience to the user. It all works fine except when testing in Arabic languages.

In Arabic the application starts and it actually shows the Arabic characters that I mocked for testing but, it does not mirror.

That said, if I invoke the launcher and pass the -nl switch

launcher.exe -nl AR

Then it mirrors.

Also if I launch from the IDE with the target platform environment set to AR it mirrors too.

I am shipping the bidi plugins for jface and swt (along with the NL plugins) and for the platform delta packs...

Does anynone know what could be wrong with the laucher?
