Hi,

String user = null;

try {

user =

WDClientUser

.getCurrentUser()

.getSAPUser()

.getUniqueName();

} catch (WDUMException e) {

// fpm.getMessageManager().raiseException(wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent(), e);

}

try{

wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getMessageManager().reportSuccess("user"+user);

IUserFactory userfact = UMFactory.getUserFactory();

IUserMaint userMaint = userfact.getMutableUser(user);

userMaint.setLocale(Locale.FRENCH);

userMaint.commit();

wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getMessageManager().reportSuccess("success");

}catch(Exception e){

}

Hope this code helps you.

Cheers-

Pramod

thanks for the posts , both were useful but none seem to be the perfect solution for us

our SAP JSF is Read Only and cant change the user language or profile.

We are looking for something more specific like changing the user "Session" language or something similar?

any tips ?

thanks

Im still looking for a answer to this problem if anyone have done something similar before.

ive been looking at ume.logon.locale but it seems the user languague and browser preferences overwrite this.

im also looking at HTTP Accept-Languague and how to change this but no solution found yet.

Thanks
