Multilanguage report

[hugo]

Hello,

I want to provide report with multilanguage support (multi-language on the report labels).
Whats the best practice ?

I see 3 options:
1. Design multi-versions of the same definition;
2. Get the choosen language and localize at runtime from the report definition with a switch case (this requires a function to get the choosen language);
3. Translated the labels at runtime before invoke the render report.

For me the option 2 it's the best. Do you have a function to get the choosen language ?


Regards,
Hugo.

Hello.

You can use Globalization Editor for this.

It's possible to choose language from code:

Code: Select all

report.localizeReport("en");

Thank you.

Out of topic.

I still think that this new interface (from the screenshoots) it's a way back, comparing to my current one. I hope that until the next major release you change it, otherwise will be block for the upgrade process.

Hello.

You can use our old interface. You could set it using next code:

Code: Select all

Theme.isTheme2013 = false;

Thank you.
