This task configures container internationalization for a servlet
within a Web module.
Before you begin
This article assumes that you have an assembly tool such as the Application Server Toolkit
(AST) or Rational Web Developer.
This article also assumes that you
have started the assembly
tool, configured
the assembly tool for work on Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)
modules, and created or imported a dynamic
Web project.
You must also have set the internationalization type of
one or more servlets in a Web project to Container.
Why and when to perform this task
This procedure relates one or more servlets to a container-managed
internationalization attribute.
Steps for this task
- In the J2EE perspective, open the Web project for which you want
to configure container internationalization.
- Double-click Dynamic Web Projects.
- Double-click the name of the Web project to see its contents.
- Double-click the deployment descriptor object.
The Web Deployment Descriptor panel is displayed.
- In the Web Deployment Descriptor panel, click the Servlets tab.
- Scroll down to WebSphere Programming Model Extensions and
then Internationalization.
- Following Container-managed Internationalization Attribute,
set the Run As field by selecting Caller, Server,
or Specified.
- If the servlet is to be run as Specified, select an internationalization
policy from the Specified list or define a new policy.
- To define an internationalization policy, click New.
The New Specified Initialization wizard is displayed.
- In the Description field, give the policy a name.
- If needed, set a time zone ID and add a time zone description.
If you do not find the appropriate time zone in the ID list, click Customize to
define one relative to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
- Create at least one locale for the policy. To create
a locale, click Add; select a language and (optional) geographic region;
specify a variant as needed. Add a locale description and click OK to
finish. The new locale is added to the Locales list.
- If more than one locale is defined for the policy, select a
locale from the Locales list and click Finish. Otherwise, just
click Finish
- From the menu bar, click File > Save.
Result
Selected servlets are now configured to run under the associated internationalization
settings.
