DescriptionBundle and Description

Definition

All description texts visible to the user need to be internationalized. For the UWL, these are the are the view and action names, the attribute labels and column headers, filter names, and menu texts.

The international versions of the description are collected in a description bundle. The elements to be described, for example, the view, use the attribute referenceBundle to link to the name of the bundle containing the internationalized descriptions. Description Bundles shipped with UWL ( uwl.standard configuration ) can be referenced globally in any configuration.

A description bundle contains short descriptions for texts on buttons or links and long descriptions for tool tips.

Example

<DescriptionBundle default="Personalize View" name="personalize">
   <ShortDescriptions>
      <Description Description="ビューをパーソナライズ" Language="ja" /> 
      <Description Description="Personalize View" Language="en" /> 
      <Description Description="Görünümü kişiselleştir" Language="tr" />
      ...
   <LongDescriptions>
     ...
