Hi,

The messages which are stored in Message Pool can be translated to any language by creating a copy of the original .xlf file and renaming with the desired language key. To achieve this follow the steps below:

1. Add a message in the message pool of your WD project (eg: please enter the name)

2. switch to the navigator perspective and navigate to the src folder under which u will see .xlf files generated for views, message pools and simple types

3. The .xlf file for the message pool will be the same name as the component name (eg: <componentname>MessagePool.xlf)

4. copy the .xlf file and paste, which will prompt you to change the name.

5. rename the file with the code of the language which u want to translate

eg: if you want to translate to 2 languages, German and French, then the file name will be

<componentname>MessagePool_de.xlf for German and <componentname>MessagePool_fr.xlf for French

6. Reload your project, Create archive and run the application.

7. In the Internet Explorer, change the language by navigating to tools>internet options>languages

8. One the new language is added, close the browser and re-launch the application again.

Hi Poojith,

Thanks for link - it was useful. But I still have a problem: how to translate DateNavigator and his messages? By changing locale it is possible to bet German version of DateNavigator, but not Lithuanian.

Hi,

I don't know if there is a conversion for Lithuanian language in the .xlf file. The allowable set of languages are displayed in the dropdown of the .xlf file
