Provide Multi Language Content in Knowledge Management // Class deprecated

Hello,
I tried to implement the blog "Provide Multi Language Content in Knowledgle Management" by Thomas Kuri (BridingIT).
I have problems to import the the following class:
import com.sapportals.portal.prt.service.usermanagement.IUserManagementService;
I always get the warning "The type IUserManagementService" is deprecated. I use the following jar file for that:
j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\portal\portalapps\com.sap.portal.usermanagement\lib\com.sap.portal.usermanagementapi.jar
Is that the wrong jar file? Or am I doing something else wrong?
Thanks for your help!!
Kirsten

Hi,
she's trying to implement the code example from this article:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/207ba610-08ac-2b10-1787-fc477da4b5bf
In this article, the deprecated class is used. Why? The code obviously is not written for EP7, but for EP6 with EP5 support. In the function: getEP5User is used to retrieve the EP5 user.
If you're not too experienced or just want to try something / PoC it's OK to just copy & paste some sample code. For using this code in an EP7 portal I would recommend to adapt the code.

Web Page Composer Multi Language Content

Hi,
can the content of WPC pages language-dependant?
What is the strategy for multi-languages web sites with WPC?
I have the request of a customer who wants to display WPC content on pages dependant on the language selected by user personalization
#Thanks hs

Hi Holger,
I worked with WPC and don't find any difficulties. I had requirements create multilanguages interface for portal (English and Russian). Use WPC you can create multilanguages pages. First of all you create page in English, then translate it and publish. When you change language in personalization (for example from English to Russian) russian pages (which I translate in WPC) pull in Portal automatic.
Have a look this presentations

Multi-Language content on BC

Can anyone share any experience with building multi-language sites on BC? I have a client in Eastern Canada that needs a site in French and English. Is the best approach to create two complete sites in different directories such as: www.mysite.com/fr/ www.mysite.com/en/ Can anyone provide sample sites where this has been done in BC? Are there other CMS's that are better equipped for multi-language sites? Thanks for your help!

Hi,
A good example is Dr.Wheatgrass site which provide multiple sites (.ca, .us. ,etc) and separate accounts to cover different countries and languages.

Adobe Presenter Multi Language Publishing Support?

Hi,
I have a requirement where I wanted to convert the English course into the following 26 languages:
Arabic
Chinese (Simplified)
Chinese (Traditional)
Croatian
Czech
Dutch
Finnish
French (Europe)
German (Germany)
Greek
Hindi
Hungarian
Indonesian
Italian
Japanese
Korean
Polish
Portuguese (Brazil)
Romanian
Russian
Slovakian
Spanish (Europe)
Spanish (Latin America)
Swedish
Thai
Turkish
Can you please let me know, if it is possible to do that in Adobe Presente(Any version will work), and how? Dose Presenter supports publishing in all these languages?

Aptara, Pune.

The player skin carries text for: German, English, French, Spanish (Spain), Itialian, Dutch, Chinese (simplified), Japaniese, Korean, Poruguese (Brazil), Russian and Turkish. These text lables will display based on the OS language setting of the viewer. You could modify any of these text lables to be in any other language, and, if you are adept enough, could possibly modify the file that holds the text lables and the XML that calls to it to have additional text.
However, for the content of your PPT and the audio associated with it, you would need to have someone or something do that conversion for you. Traditionally called globalization, there are a number of groups that do it out there. Feel free to PM me if you want info on the group we use.

Provide Multi Language Content in Knowledge Management blank page

Hi Team,
I have followed the document above from Thomas Kuri, but the result was an empty page with "jj" as text without errors.
My case (SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.0):
1) I have two folders: "/documents/myCompany/de" with documents written in German and "/documents/myCompany/en" for English written documents
2) User can choose another language by click at the "English" or "German" link on the Masthead
3) Dependent on the choosed language, the right document should be shown in the iView.
I already have tryied these ways:
1) Create a JSP which includes the right KM document
2) Create a JSP with IFRAME and define the SRC as given in Thomas Kurt's document
3) Lookup an existing KM documents iView and set the "path" property in runtime
Thanks.
Regards,
Cengiz

Hi Kirsten,
yes I have found another way. Follow the steps below:
1) Create a folder in KM (e. g. "MyCompany")
2) Create two HTML files within the folder (e. g. "mydoc_de.html", "mydoc_en.html")
3) Dependent on language, write something into this files (e. g. "mydoc_de.html" => "Dies ist das HTML-Dokument mit deutschsprachigem Inhalt", "mydoc_en.html" => "This is the HTML document with English written content")
4) Start NWDS and create a new Portal Application Project
5) In the project properties, define the JAR files you need for implementing the solution (bc.jar, com.sap.portal.ivs..jar, com.sap.portal.navigation..jar, com.sap.portal.usermanagementapi.jar, com.sap.security..jar, gl_*.jar). If on server side not available, you must copy/paste the missing JAR file in your projects lib folder
6) Update portalapp.xml with the entry SharingPreference -> <application><application-config><property name="SharingPreference" value"..."/></aplication-config>
7) Write your first class (it's a simple Java class) named "PortalKMUtil.java". In this class - that was my solution - I have three methods: a) getUsedLanguage() to read out users langauge, b) getDocContent() to read the documents content named "mycompany_" + USER_LANGUAGE + ".html" and c) getEP5User(). The last method transforms EP6 user into the EP5
8) The second and last Java class in your project is an AbstractPortalComponent (I18NDocReader.java) with only three line of code. The responsibility of method doContent() is to call PortalKMUtil.getDocContent() with passing two parameters "request" and "mydoc". The return value of PortalKMUtil.getDocContent() - it is of type String - you can write in the response object
9) On the Portal side, create a new iView and use your own (new created) AbstractPortalComponent as template
10) Start testing in preview mode. Switch browser language if you can see the right content within the iview
If you need some sources, don't hesitate to write to me.

Cengiz

i have copied the jar files of french,german to lib folder of idm. Also i have created the links for these languages at login page of SIM.
Please tell how to do it for my application page through SIM workflow.
Thanks alot

You can not not install ISE CUE software on UC500, but only UC500 specific CUE software.
And, (I don't know if that is the case), if the language you need is supported on CUE for ISR but not on UC500 CUE, there is no solution, and you can only complain to Cisco for not having delivered the languages they had publicily promised to the public.
Furthemore to that, it apperas there is a bug in 8.6.3 that makes so mailbox caller guide is played with default system language instead of user setting langiage.

Multi-Language content

Hi,
In my content area, i have a URL Item. This item calls a procedure in the database (ex. Alain.Show_Plants.Main?Pant_Id=1).
In my procedure, I call the function wwctx_api.get_nls_language to get the language of the current user.
But the function always returns 'us'. (ex. I log to the portal in french and the function returns 'us' insted of 'f'). What is the problem ?
I need help !
Thanks in advance

are you setting the application language as french?
Are you getting any exceptions in your program?
The default is US always.
I think you are not setting the application language as French when you are getting inside the portal.
cheers,

Best practice for multi-language content in common areas

I've got a site with some text in header/footer/nav that needs to be translated between an English and Spanish site, which use the same design. My intention was to set up all the text as content to facilitate. However, if I use a standard dialog with the component's path set to a child of the current page node, I would need to re-enter the text on every page. If I use a design dialog, or a standard dialog with the component's path set absolutely, the Engilsh and Spanish sites will share the same text. If I use a standard dialog with the component's path set relatively (eg path="../../jcr:content/myPath"), the pages using the component would all need to be at the same level of the hierarchy.
It appears that the Geometrixx demo doesn't address this situation, and leaves copy in English. Is there a best practice for this scenario?

I'm finding that something to the effect of <cq:include path="<%= strCommonContentPath + "codeEntry" %>" resourceType ...
works fine for most components, but not for parsys, or a component containing a parsys. When I attempt that, I get a JS error that says "design.path is null or not an object". Is there a way around this?

Multi language support in SAP XI

Hi mates,
Is multi language UI supported in XI? Does SAP WAS Java has mutli language support i.e. can IR, ID, RWB, VA etc be viewed/edited in other languages like Spanish, French etc?
Since SAP XI is based on SAP Basis 6.40, I guess ABAP part of XI has mutli language support. Correct me, if I'm wrong.
Any special components need to be installed for this multi lang support purpose in SAP WAS ABAP & Java?
I appreciate your inputs/referrences/docs.
thx in adv
praveen

Yeah, I've seen IR, ID & RWB in English and German. But was wondering if it is possible in Spanish and French.
I looked at the NW master guide, but could not find any hints regarding this.
Thanks for your inputs, now I know that SXMB_MONI can be viewed in Spanish & French.
I appreciate any further inputs.
thx

Multi Language support for KM Content

Hi Experts,
We have some folders created in KM and all their display names are in English. Now the client has asked for maintaining multi language names for folders and files in KM. Which means if the logon language of the user is in English then the folder name and document name has to be in English and if the logon language is different then the text maintained in that language has to be displayed for the KM folder and file names.
I went through some blogs and forums but still I couldnt get a clear idea on this. can some one let me know how to achieve this?
Thanks,
Mahendran B.

Hi Kruger,
I have already looked into these documentation. Our portal is in version 7.0, so it is not applicable.
I have to maintain the multi language for folders in KM of SAP EP 7.0
Thanks,
Mahendran B.

Oracle 9i Support for multi language is not working.. Giving question mark

HI,
We have an application which uses oracle 9i as the database. Riight now we are supporting only english and there is a requirement to support multiple languages like korean, chineese and japaneese.
But we are planning to migrate one part of the application to support multi languages. Means it may affect around 10 tables but with huge data. Totally we have around 100 tables.
How to enable the database for supporting multiple langugages.?
Is there any way to enable only the few tables supporting multiple languages. Because if we change the database level parameters for supporting languages, we may need to migrate entire tables. this will be a huge task.
Even if want to set the parameters for supporting multiple languages.. how to set it. Is it possible set it in the existing database or do we need to re-create the table with these prameters.
I have read in some documentation, that we can create table columns with nVarchar2 for supporting multi languages. I have created it. but if i copy some other language characters into those columns, it is giving question mark.
Is it possible to do search using text in native langugage like chineese..
Could somebody guide me on the above clarificationa and what would be the best approach..
Thanks in advance
Jino

You should not use any more Oracle 9.0.1 but at least Oracle 9.2.0.8 to get some extended support if you really cannot upgrade to 10g.

Multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms

multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms
Instead of creating multiple forms, 1 in each different language, for the same service, is there any workaround?

Hoan - is your question what are the considerations when creating multiligual catalogs? If so, I can tell you that at other clients I have seen them use a single catalog for one or two languages. For the two langugages, such as Spanish/English, you can create a single catalog with both of them. Once you get to more than two languages, the catalog would get unweildy and is therefore not suggested.
