Toolkit National Language Libraries

Translation of a CA 2E-developed application must address two classes of text: text provided by the CA 2E product and text input by the application developers.

Translated versions of CA 2E product objects are available from CA for many languages. These translations are shipped in the National Language Support phase 1 (NLS1) libraries (y1syxxxx & y2syxxxx), which are also known as the LDO (Language Dependent Objects) libraries.

NLS libraries currently available are:

• Dutch
• Finnish
• French
• German
• Hebrew
• Italian
• Japanese
• Norwegian
• Spanish
• Swedish
• Uppercase English

To create the required product runtime objects (ydupappobj), the application developer includes the NLS1 libraries above the normal product libraries in his library list when running the command (the libraries are required for a complete application translation).

Examples of text provided by CA 2E include the conditional values display screen, the help text display screen, and various default messages.

Note: CA 2E is not required for operation of CA 2E Translator. CA 2E is required for the member list processing (that is, the initial build of the list of panels and the subsequent re-compilation in the case of hand-coded or CA 2E panels compiled without MSGIDs). CA 2E is not required for translation.
