[jira] Created: (CLK-591) I18N for Menu control
I18N for Menu control
---------------------
Key: CLK-591
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-591
Project: Click
Issue Type: Wish
Components: extras
Affects Versions: 2.1.0 RC1
Reporter: WarnerJan Veldhuis
Priority: Minor
Menu is not I18N-able. I have created a patch that fixes that. Here's an example of how to set a messagekey in menu.xml, that corresponds to an item in the messageresources.
The message attribute tells the menu which key should be used to get the text from the message resources. (The $path variable can be used as well, since I adjusted the writeMenu VM macro to use: #evaluate($submenu) instead of $submenu itself. Velocity now supports #evaluate to evaluate a string that contains VM directives )
<menu>
<menu label="Home" path="/home.htm">
<menu message="menu_logoff" path="$path?actionLink=logoff" roles="SU, DU, VU, WU"/>
</menu>
</menu>
The setParent method is overridden because the parent is needed to access the page's message resources. It will also recursively descend into the children as well. Once you add the menu to the page using Page.addControl(Menu.getRootMenu(new MyAccessController())); the page is set as parent for all menuitems.
Attribute message takes precedence over attribute label. If both are set, message is the attribute used.
So there you go. I18N for Menu :)

[jira] Commented: (CLK-591) I18N for Menu control
Posted by "Malcolm Edgar (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLK-591?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12773254#action_12773254 ]
Malcolm Edgar commented on CLK-591:
-----------------------------------
Agree with this issue and approach. The menu in addition to the label property has a title property, and an imageSrc property which could also benefit from localization. If we use the convention used with other controls we can support internationalization as well
menu_logoff.label=Log Off
menu-logoff.title=Logout of the application
menu-logoff.imageSrc=/assets/images/logoff.gif
To do this we would need to introduce the name into the Menu control to follow this convention.
