Translating Repository Names

When repository metadata is defined, the repository name is provided. This name can also be translated and displayed in the language preferred by the user.

Procedure

  1. Create a key based on the repository name. 
    REPO_NAME__"<repository name>"
  2. Add the translation for the key in the SharedStringResources.properties file as follows: 
    REPO_NAME__CUSTOMER=Customers

Result

The translated name is then picked up from the resource bundle, whenever applicable.

Note:
  • This only applies to UI. Web services, rulebase, and workflow continue to use repository name as currently practiced. If no translation is provided, repository name as provided in metadata is shown.
  • The metadata UI to view repository metadata uses translated names whereas to modify repository metadata uses original names.
  • This feature works on all screens except for Business process rules and Work Item forms.
