Customizing Messages and Properties

If needed, you can customize messages and labels in WebStudio user interface (UI) to explain the right meaning and context, or add a new language support.

See Adding a New Custom Language Pack for more details about customizing messages and properties for a new language pack.

Procedure

  1. Browse to the BE_HOME/rms/lib/locales directory, which contains the locale JAR files.
    Each JAR (<locale_name>.jar) file correspond to a different language. Each JAR file (filename_<locale_name>.properties) consist of the different properties files corresponding to various areas of the application.
  2. Extract the corresponding locale JAR file to edit one of the existing values of the properties.
  3. Identify the files or properties that you need to change. Update the required files and properties and compress it back into the JAR file.

What to do next

Refresh the web browser to see the changes in WebStudio. If you don’t see the changes, perform a browser cache cleanup (as sometimes the values are loaded from the cache) and reload the URL.
