[SOLVED] Localization of Zimlets

[skid]

Hi all,

I'm having some problems in getting localization for my zimlet working.

So far, this is what I've done:
1) First, I created the respective <zimletname>.properties, <zimletname>_de.properties (etc.) files for my localizations. For testing purposes I just added one property to each of them:

tooltip = My localized tooltip

2) Next, I tried to use this property in my <zimletname>.xml file, e.g.

<toolTipText> ${msg.tooltip} </toolTipText>

Unfortunately the tooltip in Zimbra then just says ${msg.tooltip}.

3) After that I tried to use the property in one of my Javascript files using

this.getMessage("tooltip");

This doesn't work either, Zimbra just shows ???tooltip???

I really don't know what I'm doing wrong here. Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I'm using Zimbra Desktop instead of the ZCS client for faster testing (so the zimlet hasn't actually been deployed to the system) - but this shouldn't be a problem, right?

It is a problem that is has'nt been deployed.
You have to deploy the zimlet to store the translations in zimbra and restart jetty.
