DataSources for Language-Dependent Attributes 

Use

CAF provides special DataSources to access language-dependent data of business object node attributes that were modeled to be language-dependent.

Example

If we have a business object node sap.com/store/Movie and it has the following attributes and the attributes title and plot are language-dependent.

Name	Type
key	caf.core.services.Id
createdBy	caf.core.services.UserId
createdAt	caf.core.primitive.DATETIME
modifiedAt	caf.core.primitive.DATETIME
createdBy	caf.core.services.UserId
title	caf.core.primitive.STRING
plot	caf.core.primitive.STRING
price	caf.core.primitive.DECIMAL

The DataSource that CAF would provide for the language-dependent attributes of this business object node contains the following characteristics: (assume that CAF_BI_DATASOURCE_NAME_PREFIX = E41, CAF_BI_LD_DATASOURCE_NAME_PREFIX = LD)
