Internationalization problem [message #448443]

Hi,
I need to change the title of my views according to the language.
As far i understand it can be done by making different plugin property files like plugin.properties and plugin_de.properties.
This method is working fine when I provide the locale as program argument,
but in my application user can choose the locale at the time of the login.
I have tried to change the locale by changing the system property "osgi.nl". but it was not working.

So what should i do in this scenerio.

thnx

AFAIK, the text is set when each object is created. The only way I know
to change the locale while running is to open a new window and close the
old one.

Rohit-
The plugin.properties look-ups for Views are done when the extension
registry is initialized during application start up. There are methods
for setting the title on a view though that you might be able to use
during runtime if the user chooses a different locale.
