Scott Wilson commented on WOOKIE-405:
-------------------------------------
Sorry just realised that last comment was a bit vague...
When the user platform (e.g. Rave) requests a widget for a user, one of the
parameters sent to the WidgetInstance API is "locale" (see
http://wookie.apache.org/docs/api.html)
This will return the rendering information for the widget, using localized
resources.
You can try this out with the demo.
1. Drop this widget into /deploy:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/wookie/trunk/src-tests/testdata/localetest.wgt
2. Edit demo/wookie-connector.js, and add line 141:
postdata = postdata + "&locale=fr";
3. Open /wookie/demo and select the last widget in the list.
4. You should see "Bonjour tout le Monde!"
5. Edit line 141 and put "locale=en-gb-yorks" and refresh the demo page, it
will now show "Ayup world!".
So if the localization isn't working, the problem may be that the requesting
platform isn't supplying a "locale" parameter when requesting the widget
instance for a user.
(Note that we always delegate responsibility for selecting locale to the
requesting platform - it may use browser properties, or user profiles to do
this for example)
