extend on *labels files ?

[Erwan de FERRIERES-3]

Hi all,

sometimes I need to add or work with specifics labels on entities / UI
/security, which won't be added to OFBiz.

Is there then a way to create a new file and working with it such as
what is done with the extend entity ?

Regards,

the labels are defined in resources.
I just add new files and declare then in the widgets.
use the same format as current labels files.

What I'll do is to put the new label file into the config folder and add something like
<property-map resource="my_new_labels" map-name="uiLabelMap" global="true"/>
 in the screen widget that are using the new labels.

Yeah sure, it's what I'm doing. I didn't explained well my use case. The
problem I'm facing is when using EntityLabels already existing.

If I want to add new records in my entity, and then add the EntityLabels
going with it, I have to modify the OFBiz file. What I want is extend
the existing labels file, and not have to modify the OFBiz file...

Hi Erwan,

Look at the getBundle method in UtilProperties class.
You can load your override resource to merge the properties etc.
