Hi,
thanks.
I have created a new Resource Bundle in iReport as name: hu
After I have uploaded to Resources folder, near to the report.jrxml on the JAsperserver.
I have set at the report properties-> Resource Bundle parameter : hu
I have uploaded the modified jrxml as well.
In the detail header I have set the Text value: $R{Date}
In the hu.properties I have: Date=Datum, but it does not translate it it shows: $R{Date} as columnheader.

Hello
Have you add the ressource on the repository as well ?
(see step 4,5,6 from internationalize report)

yes of course.
It is working with textField and not with static text.
When I make several leangue files, how can I select witch one will be used at current report? By report parameter or how?

This feature is not supported by static text as they do not understand expresion. You must use text fields

resource bundle names are similar used to java resource bundle name which is
{base name}_{language code}_{country code}.properties
the {base name} needs to be set within the report.
for each localization a matching bundle needs to exist.
here an example:
base name is set to messages.
for the default locale just deploy a file messages.properties. for language specific settings you need: for german language support a file messages_de_DE.properties would need to exist, for a french bundle you will need a file messages_fr_FR.properties.
the current report locale is defined by JasperServer, the locale the user has chosen while login.

Oke I understand the file names.
Our application definine the language during the login there is a language selector. In that case the applicaiton should set the actual language. In that case with witch parameter could I force the JAsperserver to use the selected language file?

Hi,
You can use the REPORT_LOCALE parameter in your reports and sets it to the language you wish to use

Hi
The localization is working well.
Currently I have uploaded the resource bundles translation files under the report's resource.
Is it possible to copy them to one global space? All reports can use the same translation files and I do not need copy them under every report resource.

Guillaume, I tried setting an input control in the repository for REPORT_LOCALE, and set its value to "fr_FR" (of which I have bundle for), but when the report is ran I still have "en_us" which is being read from my browser and the value does not get changed. Can you show an example of the code you use to assign the REPORT_LOCALE a new value, I would really like the users to be able to change their locale at Report Runtime, rather than at Login. Thanks.
