Changing language dynamically

Question

hi all,
I want to have buttons on my pages to change the language of the application dynamically. I tried to do this with no result; for example I want my application to support two languages arabic and english. Here is what I did:
I added the following code to faces-config.xml
<locale-config>
<default-locale> en </default-locale>
<supported-locale> ar </supported-locale>
</locale-config>
Then, I added the following code to adf-faces-config.xml
<right-to-left>true</right-to-left>
Finally, I've created a button with the following action:
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Application app = fc.getApplication();
DCBindingContainer binding = (DCBindingContainer)app.getVariableResolver().resolveVariable(fc,"bindings");
BindingContext bc = binding.getBindingContext();
LocaleContext en = new DefLocaleContext(new Locale("en"));
LocaleContext ar = new DefLocaleContext(new Locale("ar"));
if(bc.getLocaleContext().getLocale().getLanguage().equalsIgnoreCase("ar"))
bc.setLocaleContext(en);
else
bc.setLocaleContext(ar);
return null;
Did I miss something ??
I am stucked here, any help plz?

hi all,
now it works with only this action:
public String commandButton_action() {
// Add event code here...
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
if(fc.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getLocale().getLanguage().equalsIgnoreCase("ar"))
fc.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().setLocale(new Locale("en"));
else
fc.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().setLocale(new Locale("ar"));
return null;
Note: I found it on another thread
