I notice that we have currently a problem with duplicated labels in different applications.

Take
    <value xml:lang="en">Estimated Start Date</value>
for instance

It was certainly present in
    ManufacturingUiLabels.xml
before any other files. But it's now also present in
    WorkEffortUiLabels.xml
    ProjectMgrUiLabels.xml

Bruno has proposed a python script to deal with that (and other issues) in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1698 but
there is currently some problems with it. I think it's possible to amend and will try it. I don't know anything about python, but it
does not look like a challenge.

Anyway, the point of this mail is to try to make aware developers about this kind of issues. But, as I know well it's a lot of
tedious work to identify duplicate labels, I guess the best would be ro run, from time to time, Bruno's script as soon as it will be
safe.

BTW I think I will close OFBIZ-1698 (see my last comment) and open a new one for duplicate labels only, if there are any concerns
about closing of course.

Any other ideas ?

Jacques
PS : Though as Java is the primary language used in OFBiz we could convert the script to a Java service which could be run async, or
at will. Then we could have more manpower around this issue, WDYT ?

I spent some time trying to fix it but did not succeded, sorry.
Could we think to a WebTool that loads all UiLabels file and helps to see
where language is missing and where duplications are?

I will think about it, but it's not a priority for now.
I even thought about an APL script - good for this kind of stuff - but it would be definitively too cryptic to maintain.
Maybe I will try a mock in APL and will write a Java program thereafter. This time it looks like a challenge as you did not succeed
in Python ;o)

Thanks

Jacques
