Using Advanced Compile


This topic describes how to use Advanced Compile.

To use Advanced Compile

  1. Make a backup copy of the repository.

    CAUTION:  Before you use Advanced Compile, make a backup copy of the repository.

  2. Enable language override.

    You must enable language override before you can use Advanced Compile. For more information, see Enabling Language Override.

  3. Choose the Tools menu.
  4. While holding down the SHIFT key, choose the Compile Projects menu item.

    Siebel Tools displays the Advanced button in the Object Compiler dialog box only if you hold down the SHIFT key.

  5. Click Advanced.
  6. In the Advanced Options dialog box, choose the following items. Each of these items is optional:
    • Enable Pseudo-Localization. Adds a prefix to each string.
    • Pseudo-Localization Prefix. Enter the characters that Siebel Tools uses to add a prefix to each string. Siebel Tools adds this prefix only if you add a check mark to the Enable Pseudo-Localization check box. To test a language that includes characters that are specific to the language, you must include one or more of these characters in the prefix.
    • For Missing Translations, Display Lang_code + Object Name. Inserts a temporary string for each missing translation.
  7. Click OK.
  8. In the Object Compiler dialog box, choose the projects that Siebel Tools must compile.
  9. Choose a repository for the language that you must test.
  10. Click Compile.
  11. Test your work:
    1. Choose the Debug menu, and then click Start.

      Siebel Tools starts the Siebel client in a new browser window. If you enabled all options in Step 6, then Siebel CRM prefixes strings with the characters you specify in Step 6, and temporary strings include the prefix, language code, and object name. For more information, see Setting Debug Options to Open the Siebel Client.

    2. To locate missing string translations, navigate the screens and views in the Siebel client.
