All labels visible in the Personalization area of the Business Control Center are defined in a resource bundle called WebAppResources.properties located in one of the following places:
Module | Resource Bundle Path and Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
| Navigation pane tree |
|
| Tabs and general UI infrastructure used by all Business Control Center applications |
|
| Views and other UI elements designed for targeters, users, roles, and other Personalization items. |
Keeping labels in a resource bundle makes your application available for localization. If you want to add or change a label, do so in a custom resource bundle rather than the default resource bundle so that your changes are not overwritten when you install a new version of Business Control Center. Resource bundles should exist in a directory such as <ATG10dir>/home/locallib that automatically adds files to your CLASSPATH.
Labels for custom screen elements should be defined in a resource bundle. If you created a view in the Browse tab that lists all manufacturers, for example, you can provide a label to that view by completing these two tasks:
Update a custom task configuration file to identify the appropriate resource bundle (if you are using a resource bundle that isn’t the default) and the resource bundle key for the view:
<tabs>
<tab id="browse">
<views>
<view-order>
<view-id>manufacturer</view-id>
<view-id>catalogTree</view-id>
<view-id>catalogMedia</view-id>
<view-id>catalogOrphans</view-id>
<view-id>promotions</view-id>
<view-id>priceLists</view-id>
<view-id>pricelistFolders</view-id>
<view-id>coupons</view-id>
</view-order>
<initial-view>
manufacturer
</initial-view>
<view id="manufacturer">
<resource-bundle>
atg.commerce.web.MyResourceBundle
</resource-bundle>
<display-name-resource>
browseTab.view.manufacturer
</display-name-resource>
<configuration>
/atg/commerce/web/assetmanager/
ManufacturerViewConfiguration
</configuration>
</view>
</views>
</tab>
<tabs>For more information on the task configuration file, see Customizing the UI for Specific Tasks and Activities.
In the resource bundle, specify the key from the task configuration file equal to the name you want to use in the UI:
browseTab.view.manufacturer=Manufacturers
