Rules

The following key suffixes can be translated:

• headline
• headinfo<number>

The built-in translation of these labels can be overridden in the following way:

• Add custom translations to a IzPack resource CustomLangPack.xml_<ISO3>
• The following translation keys and lookup order can be used:
1. If a panel ID is defined:
   <Fully_qualified_panel_classname>.<panelId>.<subKey>
2. If a panel ID is defined:
   <Simple_panel_classname>.<panelId>.<subKey>
3. If no panel ID is defined:
   <Fully_qualified_panel_classname>.<subkey>
4. If no panel ID is defined:
   <Simple_panel_classname>.<subkey> (for compatibility with IzPack 4 translations)

Usage

Headlines on all kind of installer panels can be translated in the following manner:

...

<langpack>
  <str id="TargetPanel.headline" txt="Take a deep breath and gimme an installation directory"/>
</langpack>

and add it as resource to the installation descriptor using predefined key depending on each language used:

<resources>
  <res id="CustomLangPack.xml_eng" src="i18n/CustomLangPack.xml_eng"/>
</resources>
 
<panels>
  <panel classname="TargetPanel"/>
</panels>

A more complex example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<izpack:langpack version="5.0" xmlns:izpack="http://izpack.org/schema/langpack" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://izpack.org/schema/langpack http://izpack.org/schema/5.0/izpack-langpack-5.0.xsd">
