Automatic Translation of view entity fields from the real entity linked to the
view
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: OFBIZ-129
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-129
Project: OFBiz (The Open for Business Project)
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: framework
Affects Versions: SVN trunk
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Marco Risaliti
Priority: Minor
I have seen that in same forms the heading of the fields was not translated and
checking in to the source I have verified that in case of using the view entity
those fields was not translated automatically from the real entity linked to
the view.
The first solution can be to insert also the view entities into the
EntityLabels properties file but in this case a lot of replication of data will
be happened.
To be more clear I will try to explain with an example.
A lot of fields into the forms use the view entity UomAndType that can be used
to show the type and unit of misure.
In this case I will have to create the following row into
CommonEntityLabels.properties :
UomType.description.LENGTH_MEASURE=Length
Uom.description.LEN_cm=Centimeter
and to solve the view entity issue I had to insert also this row in the same
property file
UomAndType.description.LEN_cm.LENGTH_MEASURE=Centimeter
UomAndType.typeDescription.LEN_cm.LENGTH_MEASURE=Length
This cause a lot of data replication into the EntityLabels properties and so I
prefer that the Entity Engine will retrieve automatically the translation of
the heading of the fields from the real entity linked to the view.
I have modified the GenericEntity.get() method to apply this new mechanism that
you can find attached to this issue.
I have tried this patch a lot but I prefer if some of the major expert of OFBIZ
can test it before commits because this method it's hugely into the forms.
In the patch you can find also the new header for this class and you can find
also Valid Status Change for Shipment to test this new mechanism.
I wait for you feedback on this patch and I'm at your disposal for discuss on
it.
Thanks a lot
Marco
