| # Translation LN uses Language Translation Support (LTS) to reduce the language dependency of the LN applications and lower the costs of media creation and distribution. Language translation support LTS provides a mechanism to separate translatable software components, such as labels, questions, and messages from language-independent components, such as form and report layouts. In LTS, the forms and reports only exist in the development language. For example, a sales order entry form contains only identifiers for the associated labels. The form is used by all system languages. At runtime, the translated labels are displayed on the form. Software translation In LN you can export the labels, questions, and messages from a development or translation system and import them into other LN environments. Export and import of labels is performed by using XML-formatted files. Every XML file contains a selection of translatable components based on the user’s settings. The translated language files can be imported back into the Infor environment. The import process includes a conversion to runtime. All descriptions are stored as labels which can be handled by the same import and export processes. Verify software components Verify Software Components ( VSC) is a tool to perform quality control on the LN 4GL-software. VSC performs various validations, based on the LN design principles. When you use VSC, a list of warnings is generated. For each warning, you can decide whether to accept the warning or solve the problem. |
