Set the internationalization type for servlets

This task sets the internationalization type for a servlet within a Web module.

 

Before you begin

This article assumes that you have an assembly tool such as the Application Server Toolkit (AST) or Rational Web Developer.

This article also assumes that you have started the assembly tool, configured the assembly tool for work on J2EE modules, and created or imported a dynamic Web project.

 

Procedure

  1. In the J2EE perspective, open the Web project for which you want to set the internationalization type.

    1. Double-click Dynamic Web Projects.

    2. Double-click the name of the Web project to see its contents.

    3. Double-click the deployment descriptor object.

    The Web Deployment Descriptor panel is displayed.

  2. In the Web Deployment Descriptor panel, click the Servlets tab.

  3. Scroll down to WebSphere Programming Model Extensions and then Internationalization.

  4. From the Servlets and JSPs list of the Servlets panel, select the servlet for which you want to set the internationalization type.

  5. Under Internationalization, select a value from the Internationalization type list. Valid values are Application or Container.

  6. From the menu bar, click File > Save.

 

Result

The internationalization type setting is assigned to the servlet.

 

What to do next

If you selected container-managed internationalization, one can then set container-managed internationalization attributes for methods within the servlet. For more information, see "Configuring container internationalization for servlets."
