Sun Java System Access Manager 7.1 Developer's Guide

Localization Files

Localization files are located in the following directory: AccessManager-base/SUNWam/locale

These are i18n properties files global to the Access Manager instance. A localization properties file, also referred to as an i18n (internationalization) properties file specifies the screen text and error messages that an administrator or user will see when directed to an authentication module’s attribute configuration page. Each authentication module has its own properties file that follows the naming format amAuthmodulename.properties ; for example, amAuthLDAP.properties. They are located in AccessManager-base/SUNWam/locale/. The default character set is ISO-8859-1 so all values are in English, but Java applications can be adapted to various languages without code changes by translating the values in the localization properties file.

The following table summarizes the localization properties files configured for each module. These files can be found in AccessManager-base/SUNWam/locale.
