Hi Chuck,
hm, I thought that...
But thanks for the bunch of alternatives. It's very easy to provide
localized configs. I've almost forgotten that ERXResourceManager takes
the available languages as parameter for resource access. So I simply
moved my config files into the LANG.lproj directories and localized
the column headers.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Regards,
Helmut

Hi folks,
is it possible to use localization in the AjaxGrid properties file?
I would like to add localized strings for the column titles of the
grid and it would nice to do this in the properties plist. Maybe
there is something like the formatterClass key to make this happen...
If not, would it be a useful feature request to support
localization of column titles?
An interesting question, but problematic. The Ajax framework has a
very light dependancy on ERExtensions where Wonder style
localization is implemented. I think that tying the Ajax framework
to one specific localization implementation is not a good idea.
Here are some ideas to consider:
- do it a level up, provide a localized config. You could even
merge the common values with the localized ones. It is just a
NSMutableDictionary
- use a formatter. It would have to use thread local storage to get
at the session. If you use Wonder, this is already there.
- sub-class AjaxGrid and do the localization in the sub-class
Any other ideas?
Chuck
