[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - How can I set the language for all portlets in the portal

[rkiesi]

Hi all,

I try to write a portlet in which a user can select the language of the information displayed in all other portlets. So far I can change the language for each portlet seperately. Please see the code below for details.

The managed Bean:
public class ChangeLocaleBean {
  | 	
  | 
  |    private java.lang.String bundleName;
  | 
  |    /**
  |     * Changes the language
  |     * @param event
  |     */
  |    public void changeLocale(ActionEvent event) {
  | 	   HtmlCommandLink cl = (HtmlCommandLink)event.getComponent();
  | 	   String localeString = (String)cl.getId();
  | 	   FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().setLocale(new Locale(localeString));	   
  |    }
  | 
  |    /**
  |     * 
  |     * @return bundleName
  |     */
  | 	public java.lang.String getBundleName() {
  | 		return bundleName;
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	/**
  | 	 * 
  | 	 * @param bundleName bundleName
  | 	 */
  | 	public void setBundleName(java.lang.String bundleName) {
  | 		this.bundleName = bundleName;
  | 	}   
  |    
  | }

The JSP:
<%@ page contentType="text/html" isELIgnored="false"%>
  | <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
  | <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
  | <f:loadBundle basename="#{changeLocaleBean.bundleName}" var="bundle" />
  | 
  | <h:form>
  | 	<h:panelGroup id="languageSelector">
  | 		<h:commandLink id="de"
  | 			actionListener="#{changeLocaleBean.changeLocale}">
  | 			<h:graphicImage url="/images/at.gif" alt="#{bundle['language.german']}"
  | 				title="#{bundle['language.german']}" />
  | 		</h:commandLink>
  | 
  | 		<h:commandLink id="en"
  | 			actionListener="#{changeLocaleBean.changeLocale}">
  | 			<h:graphicImage url="/images/gb.gif"
  | 				alt="#{bundle['language.english']}"
  | 				title="#{bundle['language.english']}" />
  | 		</h:commandLink>
  | 	</h:panelGroup>
  | </h:form>

part of the faces-config.xml
<managed-bean>
  | 		<managed-bean-name>changeLocaleBean</managed-bean-name>
  | 		<managed-bean-class>
  | 			at.join2learn.portlet.nodetypemanager.managedBeans.ChangeLocaleBean
  | 		</managed-bean-class>
  | 		<managed-bean-scope>application</managed-bean-scope>
  | 		<managed-property>
  | 			<property-name>bundleName</property-name>
  | 			<property-class>java.lang.String</property-class>
  | 			<value>at.join2learn.portlet.locales.bundle</value>
  | 		</managed-property>
  | 	</managed-bean>

Thanks in Advance
Reinhard
