[opencms-dev] internationalise JSP files

[Dan Liliedahl]

I posted the 6.x velocity module a little while back.  You should be able to
find it by searching the archives.

Using property files sounds like a good approach if using JSP. If you
plan on changing them frequently and don't like restarting the
application, you can periodically check the last modified date of the
file and reload them if it has changed.

I've used the Velocity templating engine for a job where
internationalization was important. Under my templates directory I had
a directory 'en' for english, 'fr' for french etc. Common include
files (eg CSS, JS files) were located in a common directory and
included by the velocity templates. In my software I would reference
template
"templates/" + lang + "/mytemplate.vm"

This approach does allow more flexibility, but can be harder to
synchronize changes to the UI across the various languages.

There is a Velocity module for OpenCms 5. I don't know if it was
updated to work with version 6.
