Hi!

Well, I could make it work... (I removed some verifications code from the snippet blow to make it simpler to read):

  public WOActionResults logoutAction() {
String language = (String)request().formValueForKey ("language");
        changeLanguage(language);

        WOComponent result = pageWithName("LogoutComponent");

        Session theSession = (Session)result.context().session();
        theSession.changeLanguage(language);

        return result;
    }

The strange thing is that I have to call changeLanguage in the DA, and in the session... if I call only in the Session, I have the reverse effect, that is, I get the LogoutComponent in english and everything else in the desired language.

  Why does this happen?

I'm not sure. It may be because you are using result.context ().session() to get to the session rather than just session(). LogoutComponent may not see the session.

I'd change the method to be:

public WOActionResults logoutAction() {
String language = (String)request().formValueForKey ("language");
        session().changeLanguage(language);

        return pageWithName("LogoutComponent");
    }

Hi!

We have an application where the preferred user language is stored in his account. So, he may see the application in English, but as soon as he logs-in, the app switches to the language he choose before. We do this by removing his language from the session language list, and adding it again as the first one.

I'm implementing Logout now. To implement Logout, I have used code from Practical WebObjects book:

  public WOComponent logout() {
        NSMutableDictionary arguments = new NSMutableDictionary();
        arguments.setObjectForKey(Boolean.FALSE, "wosid");

        session().terminate();
WORedirect mainPage = (WORedirect) pageWithName ("WORedirect"); mainPage.setUrl(context().directActionURLForActionNamed ("logout", arguments));

        return mainPage;
    }

When using this, it's obvious that, whatever the language was before, the Logout page will appear in english. So, I did a small modification:

  public WOComponent logout() {
        NSMutableDictionary arguments = new NSMutableDictionary();
        arguments.setObjectForKey(Boolean.FALSE, "wosid");
arguments.setObjectForKey(session().languages ().objectAtIndex(0), "language");

        session().terminate();
WORedirect mainPage = (WORedirect) pageWithName ("WORedirect"); mainPage.setUrl(context().directActionURLForActionNamed ("logout", arguments));

        return mainPage;
    }

  And, in DirectAction, I tried this:

  public WOActionResults logoutAction() {
String language = (String)request().formValueForKey ("language");
        changeLanguage(language);
        return pageWithName("LogoutComponent");
  }

  public void changeLanguage(String newLanguage) {
NSMutableArray languagesArray = new NSMutableArray (this.languages());

        languagesArray.removeObject(newLanguage);
        languagesArray.insertObjectAtIndex(newLanguage,0);

        this.setLanguages(languagesArray);
  }

This almost works, but I'm having a problem... the "LogoutComponent" itself appears in the correct language, but all the sub-components it includes appear in English. I suspect this happens because they have WOHyperlinks, so a new session is created somewhere between by return pageWithName and the page actually gets sent to the browser. Probably, the other subcomponents are getting the language from the Session (which, at that point, i cannot control) and not from the Direct Action.

As the session does not exist during the execution of my logoutAction() method, I cannot change it's languages array. Is there any way to solve this? Maybe forcing the creation of a session in the logoutAction() method, but I could not find out how to do it.

  Yours
