Internationalization of Panels

Internationalization

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)

Example 1:

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

<langpack>
  <str id="com.izforge.izpack.panels.target.TargetPanel.headline" txt="Please select the installation directory"/>
</langpack>

Example 2:

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

<langpack>
  <str id="TargetPanel.target.panel.headline" txt="Please select the installation directory"/>
</langpack>
