FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0_01-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0_01-b03, mixed mode)

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
Microsoft Windows 2000 [��M-^E^T��M-^HM-^P 5.00.2195]

ADDITIONAL OPERATING SYSTEMS :
All, this is OS/independent issue



A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Any non-English letter (Russian, Greek, ...),
don't work as button mnemonic.

Applyies to keyboards which have 1:1 correspondance between
locale and English keys.

The problem is that using two different methods
setMnemonic(VK_<Latin>) & setMnemonic('<Locale char>')
we get different, but both unworkable results.



STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. compile & run
2. Press Alt+G
3. Press Alt+K
4. Press Alt+R

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expected:
1. All button have underlined items on it
2. output:
English Mnemonic of Russian Label works
Russian Mnemonic of Russian Label works
Solely English Mnemonic works

Actual:
1. First button has no underlined symbol on it
2. output:
English Mnemonic of Russian Label works
Solely English Mnemonic works


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------

public class MnemonicTest {

  public static void main(String[] args){
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Mnemonic Test");
    Container contentPane = frame.getContentPane();
    JButton bad1 = new JButton("\u041F\u043B\u043E\u0445\u0430\u044F"); // "Bad"
    JButton bad2 = new JButton("\u041F\u043B\u043E\u0445\u0430\u044F"); // "Bad"
    JButton right = new JButton("Right");
    right.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_R);

// Neigther of the following work correctly:
// 1.
    bad1.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_G);
    // Pressing Alt+�� generates VK_G keycode
    // Alt+G works, but �� doesn't get underlined
// 2.
    bad2.setMnemonic('\u043B');
    // Passing the character itself
    // Symbol gets underlined, but Alt+K (\u043B is under K) doesn't work

    bad1.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
        System.out.println("English Mnemonic of Russian Label works");
      }
    });
    bad2.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
        System.out.println("Russian Mnemonic of Russian Label works");
      }
    });
    right.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
        System.out.println("Solely English Mnemonic works");
      }
    });

    frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
      public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
        System.exit(0);
      }
    });

    contentPane.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
    contentPane.add(bad1);
    contentPane.add(bad2);
    contentPane.add(right);
    frame.pack();
    frame.setVisible(true);
  }

}

---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
add
    bad1.setDisplayedMnemonicIndex(0);
before line 17 in the code,
the leftmost button works on Alt+G and gets underlined.

Please, add this RFE and mark it fixed.
Or change HOWTOs, document this possibility in
AbstractButton, JLabel classes.
There's only a silly example for "Save As..." there.
