Hi Sushma,

Nothing to worry! Just make sure that you have translation teams with you! Translation teams are responsible to maintain various languges for the applications which you have developed. Actually this is a part of internationalization. there are .xlf files where in you can maintain various langauges text for your application and at runtime these applications will be converted to the the logged in langauge.

However just to give you an idea, please go through these links:

1)

2)

3)

I am sure this will help you! Please revert back in case you have any further issue,

Thanks and Regards

Pravesh

Hi Sushma,

Refer to the following link which explains about Developing an International Web Dynpro Application.

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/70361a88-d6ce-2a10-b1bc-c357097a...

You have to modify the .xlf files and thenc change the Lanaguage in IE so that whenever you login with that Language you can see the text in that particular language.

Hi sushma,

firstly you will go to Navigator tab rather than WEb-dynpro explore..

Go toSrcPackage--chose your packecge-here you will get some .xlf file related to your view name...

Hi

But my application is running in english language only.

I created application consists of labels and Input fields, dropdown. I had taken package explorer and copied those .xif files in both english and German......

After deploying it will be in English only.

Is it " Message pool " is a mandatory option in this.. I didnt create that one.

International web dynpro application PDF is with me. Iam not clear about that.

Please tell me how to sort this.

regards

sushma

Hi,

check the user language,

If you use an anonimous user (ex. Guest) check the browser language

you can also specify the url parameter sap-locale

Its not opening in my system

[matteo_fusi2]

Tools --> Options --> tab Contents --> Languages

If you are running this on Enterprise Portal, go to User Administration -> Identity Management, search for the portal user Id that you're using. In the General Information tab, notice that there is a Language Field. Change the language to your choice of language.

I modified everything,,still its not working

[matteo_fusi2]

Have you Reload and Rebuild the project?

[Former Member]

I created UI elements "Name -- Input field" , "Country --- DropdownBykey" and one button "cREATE " I HAD TAKEN.

In the package Explorer ,,,, Controller.xif files and view.xif files are present. I made a copy both in English and German...

For drop down a;lso i did the same.

Finally

I opened files of type"_de files Extension"...there i changed language to German language.....

In the Internet Explorer and Mozill a Browser , i German added language also.

still it is showing in English language only..

Please tell me where i went wrong.

Hi Sushma,

In your IE language setting, please ensure your choice of language are on top (First Row).

You can change the position of the languge by clicking the Move Up and Move Down button.

From my experiece the language will not reflect if you added it but it is not in the first row.

Hope this will resolve your issue.
