Hi Jeroen,
Yes, this is supported (though I must admit I haven't tried it out
recently). It is done using "facet decorators", that replace or wrap
the NamedFacet (corresponding to @Named facet) that is in the metamodel.
The facet decorator you should use is the I18n facet decorator:
isis.reflector.facet-decorators=resource-i18n
then have a look at the implementation of ResourceBasedI18nManager that
is used by the installed facet decorator; you should be able to see what
it's searching the resource bundle for.
~~~
In fact, there is another alternative, which is to write your own
implementations of a FacetFactory to install your own NamedFacet. You
could use the original NamedAnnotationFacetFactory as a guideline. You
could then include your own facet factory and exclude the original, using:
isis.reflector.facets.include=com.mycompany.MyNamedFacetFactory
isis.reflector.facets.exclude=org.apache.isis.core.progmodel.facets.naming.named.NamedAnnotationFacetFactory
Learning this API is worthwhile, because it'll open up other options for
you, eg getting the labels from a database, etc.
~~~
fyi, I'm hoping that we might be able, in time, to get rid of facet
decorators and simply use facet factories instead. I've raised a JIRA
(ISIS-69) for this.
Cheers
Dan

We're looking to use Isis in a multi language environment. Therefore
annotations like @Named, @Plural and @DescribedAs could have different
descriptions depending on the language being set. Is there a pattern
available to accomplish this? In regular Java code we use the
gettext-commons library.
Thanks,
