Hi,
You can use translations (See
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/InternationalizingApplica…).
For class properties, the translation format is like this:
ClassSpaceBane.ClassDocName_propertyName=A_Translation_Text
ClassSpaceName.ClassDocName_propertyName=A_Translation_Text
I'm in fact using this method in a rather simple application we have
created, but whereas it is rather simple to edit and fill-in properties
in a given instantiate class, it is not so "straight" to use the method
we talk about here to the same. For instance, consider this (awful, but
it could be useful to illustrate the discussion) model...

I've implemented it by using Documents to instantiate User and Species
classes. Species classes has two properties that hold translations of
its name. If I manage to get a new translation, I do need to add a new
property to this class. Or to instruct translators to edit the
translations document and fill in the property the name of the variable
in the format you have told before. I do prefer not to have people to
tweak with this kind of "raw" XWiki documents.
Could it be possible to create a new class for each name to be
translated and instatiate it such many times as different languages a
given name is translated to? This class will have two properties:
Language Code and Translation. WDYT?
I think all I have to do is to understand how
http://l10n.xwiki.org
works! But I think this is a bit far from my capabilities rigth now! As
stated in some other message, any entry-level help will be welcome!
Thanks!
