4. OK all dialogs and install new OS files from CD if requested. Reboot if
required.
Once configured, follow these steps to convert the application:
1. It can be worth checking the language configuration, by running the old
application under the old CX-Supervisor version and confirming all characters
are correctly shown.
2. Install the new CX-Supervisor version and load the old project.
3. Open each page and select "File menu|Save Page" to force the pages to be
written in the new Unicode format.
4. Select "Project menu|Save" to force the project to be written in the new
Unicode format and then run the project to recompile the application.
5. Test the application fully in all supported languages, and by entering text
from different Locales.
The Data Log Viewer also supports the 16 runtime languages defined above.
The selected language can be dynamically changed from the Data Log Viewer
options menu.
The Standard Web Pages offer the choice of 5 languages (English, French,
German, Italian and Spanish). The selected language can be dynamically
changed from the Settings page (within the web browser).
Although an impressive number of runtime languages are supported, you may
require a language not listed. A developer can easily add support for further
languages to the CX-Supervisor runtime:
To add additional runtime languages follow these steps:
1. Copy the file "English.lng" in the installed application folder (default is
"C:\Program Files\Omron\CX-Supervisor") and rename the copy with the
language name, e.g. "American.lng".
2. Translate the text between quotes. Note that formatting characters like %s
or %d indicate a position for inserted text or numbers so should be left in
the relevant place. Also the '&' character used in menus signifies the
keyboard shortcut for the item so select an appropriate character in the
translated language.
3. The Runtime will now automatically show any new files with .LNG
extension in the "Language Settings" dialog.
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above for the same file with the .LND extension.
This provides the translations for the Data Log Viewer.
5. Create a new language file for the user defined text as described in the
section User Defined Text above.
To deploy this language to a new machine, just install CX-Supervisor as
normal, and then copy the .LNG and .LND file to the installed application
folder. These languages will then be available for all applications run on this
machine. When copying the application files also include the newly translated
UDT files.
