RMS NetLinx Programmer’s Guide

names and URL’s of each of these files and rename it to i!-ConnectLinx. Now

anyone can retrieve an action list for the company’s system by pointing to the

company’s main web address and selecting a room file from the list.

If desired, the action list index file can be viewed in an HTML browser by using

an eXtensible Style Language file. A web developer can make any adjustments to

the XSL file so the index file has the look of the company’s web site when

viewed in an HTML browser. A sample XSL file,

i!-ConnectLinxList.xsl

, is

supplied with i!-ConnectLinx and should be placed in the same directory on the

web server as the index file.

The URL contained in the index file can point to an additional index file to allow

for tree style navigation. For instance, the main file might list cities where the

company has offices, which point to an index file for each city. Each city index

file might contain a list of buildings and point to building index files. Then each

building index file contains the list of rooms in that building and points to the

actual action list for each room.

International Issues / Localization

Localization is the process by which an application is adapted to a locale, and

describes a user’s environment or geographical location.

i!-ConnectLinx provides the standard action name, help string, and folder names

for all the standard actions. This information is built directly into the

i!-ConnectLinx module. If English is not the primary language for the room, the

standard action text can be changed.

The standard action text can be stored in a file called

i!-ConnectLinxStdText.xml

located in the

doc:\user\connectlinx

directory.

When a standard action is added, the text from this file is used for the action

name, the help string and folder names.

The

i!-ConnectLinxStdText.xml

can be created in two ways. The

i!-ConnectLinxStdTextTemplate.xml

file can be altered directly and saved as

i!-ConnectLinxStdText.xml

in the

doc:\user\connectlinx

directory. However,

this file is difficult to edit in a standard text editor so an XML file editor is

recommended.

Alternatively, the

i!-ConnectLinxStdText.xml

file can be created using the

i!-ConnectLinxEngineStdTextWriter.axs

file. To change the language:
