Description Joe A. 2007-01-23 09:59:14 UTC 
FOP can't handle mixed-case words (for example German nouns) as hyphenation 
exceptions, for example "Dateiname" (file name) which is hyphenated 
as "Datein-ame" ("Datei-name" would be correct).

The words in the stoplist are mixed-case. However, when FOP checks if there's 
an hyphenation exception for a certain word (that is, it is in the stop list), 
all the characters of the word have already been converted to lowercase. 
Therefore mixed-case words in the stoplist cannot be found.

With the attached patch applied, FOP enters the exception words in lowercase 
into the stop list.

Comment 2 J.Pietschmann 2007-01-23 13:00:12 UTC 
A better solution is to normalize the word using the character classes defined
in the hyphenation file, rather then doing a plain toLower.
