Multilingual strings
Copy
The properties of the multilingual string type are always returned using the lang attribute to specify the language used by the string. The lang attribute is translated to @aras.lang annotation for this property:
GET http://host/server/odata/ItemType(‘4F1A…8A88’)?$select=label
Response:
{
"@odata.context": “http://host/server/odata/$metadata#ItemType(label)/$entity”,
“id": “4F1A…8A88",
“label": “Part”,
“label@aras.lang": “en”
}
The client can also ask for the property value specifying a language other than the language being used in the session or in all the languages defined in the database. In AML the language attribute serves this purpose. It may contain a comma-separated list of languages or star “*” specifying all the languages in the database. The OData service introduces the lang query option with the same meaning and #aras.lang.* annotation qualifier that is used to return the property or property attribute value in the requested languages:
GET http://host/server/odata/ItemType(‘4F1A…8A88’)?$select=label&lang=*
Response:
{
"@odata.context": “http://host/server/odata/$metadata#ItemType(label)/$entity”,
“id": “4F1A…8A88",
“label": “Part”,
“label@aras.lang": “en”,
“label@aras.custom_attr": “PPP”,
“label@#aras.lang.ru": “Деталь”
“label@aras.custom_attr#aras.lang.ru": “ДДД”
}
