Issue in Chinese Translation in Web Dynpro Java Application

[former_member488131]

Hi,

I need to convert a button's text to Chinese in Web Dynpro Java application.

I have added the resource path and translation in the <ResourceName>_zh.xlf file. But the translations are not getting reflected when I change user's portal language to Chinese.

I have also tried changing the file name to <ResourceName>_zh_CN.xlf. Also tried adding Chinese [zh-CN] in browser's language. But it didn't work.

I have also tried changing the encoding form from 'UTF-8' to 'UTF-16' in .xlf file. But it started throwing build error at time of generation of .properties file --> (java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException)

Also gone through below links :

Can anyone provide a solution for this issue?

Thanks,

Tarun

Hello Jain,

1.  In the Package Explorer, select the .properties file that the system has generated.

2.  From the context menu, choose Open With…  → S2X Document Editor.

Go to the Resource Text

and Click on Edit

  3.  Save your changes.

Please refer this document

Thanks for your reply Vijay. I had already tried what you have suggested here. However, I was able to resolve this issue by putting UTF-16 code corresponding to Chinese text in Resource<MyWDComponentName>_zh.properties file.

This file contained translations for all views in the WD Component and is located in a folder different from the one containing the .xlf files.
