Problem
------------------
Jdapi changes name of a MenuItem when setting the label

The name of the MenuItem changed to "Label" after calling item.setLabel("LABEL").

Test Case:

Step 1: create a java class
import oracle.forms.jdapi.FormModule;
import oracle.forms.jdapi.Menu;
import oracle.forms.jdapi.MenuItem;
public class PopupMenuTest {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
  final FormModule module = new FormModule("TEST");
  final Menu menu = new Menu(module, "MENU");
  final MenuItem item = new MenuItem(menu, "ITEM_NAME");
  if (!item.getName().equals("ITEM_NAME"))
  throw new IllegalStateException("Error name mismatch: " + item.getName());
  item.setLabel("LABEL");
  if (!item.getName().equals("ITEM_NAME"))
  throw new IllegalStateException("Error name mismatch: " + item.getName());
  }
}

Step 2: Compile the java code

Step 3 Then run and receive the following message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Error name mismatch: LABEL
at de.siv.core.forms.PopupMenuTest.main(PopupMenuTest.java:15)
