Re: Localize component

Hi Stefan,

Are you using the latest CVS?

If so, to use the localize taskdef, you'll need the following jars which 
are located in Barracuda/WEB-INF/jars....

barracuda-ant.jar (contains Localize and other Barracuda taskdefs)
bcel-5.1-dev.jar (used for the new XMLC deferred parsing)
gnu-regexp-1.1.4.jar
jtidy-r7-xmlc-2.2.jar
wireless-xmlc-2.2.jar (optional...if you are using WML templates)
xerces-1.4.4-xmlc-2.2.jar
xhtml-xmlc-2.2.jar (optional...if you are using XHTML templates)
xmlc-2.2.jar
xmlc-taskdef-xmlc-2.2.jar (contains the Xmlc taskdef used by the Localize 
taskdef)

As you might note, Localize is based on XMLC so if you are not using XMLC 
or don't want to use it, Localize is of very little use to you.  Also 
remember that at runtime, you will need to load XMLC classes the way that 
Barracuda's DefaultDOMLoader loads XMLC classes, taking the locale into 
account, which is similar to how Java string bundles work.  The way to load 
classes via Barracuda to take advantage of this is....

Document doc = null;
//load the localized DOM template
try {doc = DefaultDOMLoader.getGlobalInstance().getDOM(MyPageHTML.class, 
theCurrentRequestLocale);}
catch (IOException ioe) {logger.fatal ("Fatal Error loading DOM template:", 
ioe);}

To use the above, in addition the jars above (other than the taskdefs), 
you'll need the following in your WEB-INF/lib...

barracuda-core.jar
plankton.jar

You will find these jars in Barracuda/WEB-INF/lib-cvs

Also note that as soon as XMLC-2.2beta1 is release, it will be added to 
Barracuda.  The one change you will notice from the current XMLC-2.2, if 
you use the XMLC taskdef directly rather than the Localize taskdef, is that 
the package that the XMLC taskdef has changed.  However, if you only use 
the Localize taskdef, you needn't worry about this.

Hope that helps.

Jake
