Category names for the folders you add to Tasks, Forms, and Reports. For example, a Forms category named
Tutorial and Samples
contains the Process Developer tutorial request and the samples request forms.
Descriptions for reports and forms. For example, the tutorial form contains a description that says, "Submit loan approval request (basic tutorial)."

Create a new
avcconfig
file, as described in Creating a Process Central Configuration File. Store it in your
deploy
folder. For example,
tutorial.avcconfig
.
For each name and description attribute in the file that you want to externalize, you must modify the place holder text to refer to a
${keyIdentifier}
. For example:
<tns:requestCategoryDef id="education" name="
${tutorial.and.samples}">
In a text editor, create a new
.properties
file that is the default externalized strings properties file for the
.avcconfig
file. For example,
tutorialConfig.properties
.
The
avcconfig
file must refer to this file, so you must add the following line, indicating multilingual support, in your
avcconfig
file:
<tns:i18n location="/path/to/tutorialConfig.properties" />
In the default properties file, add each
${keyIdentifier}
and its English value. For example:
tutorial.and.samples=Tutorial and Samples
As you add other externalized strings, add additional lines to the properties file, such as:
tutorialRequest.description=Submit loan approval request (basic tutorial)
For each additional language, make a copy of the default properties file, and change the value of the keyIdentifier for that language.
tutorial.and.samples=Tutoriel et échantillons
Name each file with an underscore and language name. For example:
For example,
tutorialConfig_fr.properties
Ensure the copy is UTF-8 encoded. By default Process Developer sets the encoding to ISO-8859-1.

<tns:requestCategoryDef id="education"
   name="${tutorial.and.samples}">
<avccom:description>
   ${tutorialRequest.description}
</avccom:description>
<tns:i18n location="/path/to/tutorialConfig.properties" />

tutorial.and.samples=Tutorial and Samples
tutorialRequest.description=Submit loan approval request (basic tutorial).
