Base configuration language support
In the base configuration,
Guidewire has a single default display language, English. If your installation
has more than one language, you can select among the multiple languages
by using the PolicyCenter menu. PolicyCenter uses the LanguageType typelist to defines
the set of language choices that the Language
menu shows.
File localization.xml
In 8.0, Guidewire splits file localization.xml into multiple
files, each of which contains formatting and parsing rules for a single
langue only. Each base configuration, each localization file resides in the
following location in Studio:
Theterm localeCode
is a standard ISO locale code, such as en_US
or ja_JP.
In a language module, each localization.xml file is in a config/locale.localeCode folder.
In the PolicyCenter 8.0 release, the existence of a localization.xml file in each region is optional. If you do not supply the relevant language configuration data in a localization.xml file, PolicyCenter uses the ICU library defaults for that language. See “The International Components for Unicode (ICU) Library” on page 21 in the Globalization Guide for details.
