Hello

I'm looking for a way to extend or replace the bundle.properties (and translations) of a bundle. I need this to customize our product if a customer wants different labels.
I was searching the web but couldn't find a solution.

Maybe through fragments, maybe somehow hack the org.eclipse.osgi.service.localization.BundleLocalization service, maybe there are certain extension points, hooks, callbacks?

Any word on this?

I have tried to override the default BundleLocalization service, but it didn't work. This is due to the default BundleLocalization service is being registered with the Constants.SERVICE_RANKING property of value Integer.MAX_VALUE.

I haven't found a solution jet.

A while past, I have seen a webinar about "e4 Application Services". It is possible to override the Localization Service there.

Maybe that helps?

Somehow the initial post is missing so I don't have a context. Let me
only state that the translation service provided as part of the e4 API
is different to the BundleLocalizationService provided by OSGi.

In e4 (or correctly defined "Applications built upon the Eclipse 4
Application Platform") the default translation implementation is using
the BundleLocalization-Service but it can be replace by a custom
implementation e.g. one that calls a webservice like google translate.

My ECE 2011 Talk "Eclipse 4 Application Platform: Not commonly known
features of the new platform" slides are found at
http://tomsondev.bestsolution.at/2011/11/07/slides-from-latest-talks/ or
a video stream at
http://tomsondev.bestsolution.at/2011/11/18/videos-from-my-eclipsecon-europe-2011-talks/
holds some information on it.

The question now still is what are you after and why you want to replace
the BundleLocalizationService.

Hi Tom

Thanks for your reply!
That was the video I was mentioning (thought it was a webinar).

The post should be available here: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=rview&goto=780443#msg_780443

For my case, we will switch to e4 with the next Eclipse Release in June. Looking forward to that!
