Error description

  • This behaviour was found running Text User Interface
    applications in the EGL Debugger or running the generated Java
    application.
    
    When entering the number 5, by selecting the 5 key in the
    numeric keypad (having num lock activated), in an input field on
    a form, the cursor moves to the next input field, and the value
    5 is displayed in that next field.
    
    The cursor should remain in the current field and the value 5
    should be displayed in the current field.
    
    
    This happens only with the Rational Business Developer 7.5.1.5
    version.
