BIRT Dynamic Internationalization

Dear All,

Please suggest me a good suggestion for my below problem/need. Its very urgent,

I have web application developed in java where i have two tabs one is "English" and another is "Hindi". So when i click on any of the tab my java based application is rendering depending on tab click.

But i want my BIRT designed report should also behave same like java application.

In Brief- My all labels of BIRT report should change acoording to tab selection. When i click on "Hindi" tab my report labels should render in "Hindi" Lanaguage and vice-versa.

Please i am waiting for your valuable reply.

Thanks & Regards,
Bokya

bokya, you should be able to use the __locale parameter in each tab to select what language you need. <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/wiki/index.php?title=BIRT:Internationalization'>Take a look</a> at this link it's a good resource that explains how to do this. <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/devshare/designing-birt-reports/1119-localizing-birt-reports-with-report-parameters/'>This is a good devshare</a> that shows how to use parameters to select a locale that you might want to look at also.

Hi Senior Member, 
 
Thanks for your reply. But my requirement is little bit different. I have two property file one file is for "English" and other is for "HINDI". So whenever i click on "English" tab in my web application then my report should take the messages from "English" property file with associated Key. 
 
Same for English Language also Whenever user cliks on English, I have Property file associated with English content in the Key-Message Pair. So the Key associated with Label will be render in English. 
 
Simple Way- My lable in Report should fetch message from associated propert file according to Web application. Those messages i have written in two files one is for Hindi another is for English. 
 
Regards, 
Bokya

bokya, you should be able to use some javascript to do what you're needing. It would be something like 
 
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>reportContext.getMessage("companyNameKey", reportContext.getLocale())</pre>
