IBM Worklight - How to change the default “Worklig

问题:

Is there a way to change the default "Worklight Settings" string in Android's OptionsMenu, as provided by Worklight?

Update: corrected the answer a bit...

Yes.

1. Open yourApp.js (located at yourProject\apps\yourApp\common)

2. Add the following object before wlCommonInit():

   WL.ClientMessages.wlSettings = "הגדרות וורקלייט";
   

   • This is also mentioned in slide 8 in the Enabling Translation training module.
     
     

3. (Re-)Build and deploy, launch in Android emulator or device

Worklight Settings will now look like so when translated to Hebrew:

Some notes:

• Make sure to change the Eclipse workspace encoding to "UTF-8" (in Eclipse Preferences > Workspace > Text file encoding). You will need to create a new Worklight project afterwards.
  
  
• If you add android:targetSdkVersion="10" or above to the application's AndroidManifest.xml, the OptionsMenu will not display as Google switched in this API Level to ActionBar, which is not yet available in Worklight.
  
  
• And a quick FYI to make sure you are aware that this feature is not meant for end-user consumption once moving to Production (it can fit for in-house apps to employees, but not your regular end-users; You don't want them to change the Worklight Server URL... ;).
