[opencms-dev] Locale macro in XSD schema

[Arturo Martín Lladó]

Hi, Rüdiger.

I can say it's a very original solution :-)

Unfortunately, the categories should be administrated (and localized,
they are siblings with different Title property) by the final users,
and the edition of a Java properties file it's not a solution suitable
for them.

That's why we have a categories taxonomy like this:

=====
/_categories
    ca
        categories with locale "ca" configured as property by the parent
        [...]
    es
        categories with locale "es" configured as property by the parent
        [...]
=====

and that's why we'd like to offer to the final user a default category
pointed using de "configuration" attribute of the CategoryWidget.

Thank you anyway, Rüdiger. I really appreciate your help and any other
tip about this problem will be very welcome.

I guess that support for macros processing on the "configuration"
attribute of the layout widgets could be part of the wishlist of the
next release of OpenCms :-)

Again, thanks for your help and have a nice weekend.

Regards.
