Bulk Load Client Localization

Bulk Load Client uses the default locale of the Java Virtual Machine when starting up, and the default locale corresponds to system locale of the host platform. All user messages are externalized to the Java ResourceBundles to allow localization. The default resource file (Java Properties file) that contains the English resource imbulkloadclient_msg.properties file is built into the imbulkloadclient.jar file and is used by default.

To use a resource file that contains a different language resource, create the resource file by translating the default resource file and putting the new resource file under

$INSTALLATION_DIR\conf\com\ca\iam\imbulkloadclient

The file name of the new resource file should have the language and country code appended. For example, for Canadian French, the file name should be

imbulkloadclient_msg_fr_CA.properties

where

fr

Specifies the lowercase two-letter ISO-639 language code

CA

Specifies the uppercase two-letter ISO-3166 country code

Note: A Java resource file is a Java properties file. The encoding of a properties file is ISO-8859-1, also known as Latin-1. All non-Latin-1 characters must be entered by using Unicode escape characters. For example, \uHHHH, where HHHH is a hexadecimal index of the character in the Unicode character set. You can use the JDK tool native2ascii.exe to convert files which contain other character encodings into files containing Latin-1 and/or Unicode-encoded characters (using Unicode escape characters).
