Hi,

I created a multilingual web application. Is there a way to change default locale to a language other than English? 

Hi Yasser,

As far as I know, it is not possible to set the default locale at design time (in the ServiceStudio).

As an alternative, try to use the "OnBeginWebRequest" system event (right-click on "ServerActions" > "Add System Event"). There you can call the "SetCurrentLocale" system action to your default locale.

Does it work for you?

Thanks Antonio. It works perfectly.

I have another question. What is the difference between OnBeginWebRequest and OnSessionStart? 

Hi Yasser,

I've found a great documentation about those (and the other) systems events:

OnSessionStart -> https://www.outsystems.com/help/servicestudio/9.1/index.htm#t=Language_Reference%2FSystem_Events%2FOn_Session_Start_Action.htm

OnBeginWebRequest -> https://www.outsystems.com/help/servicestudio/9.1/index.htm#t=Language_Reference%2FSystem_Events%2FOnBeginWebRequest_Action.htm

All events -> https://www.outsystems.com/help/servicestudio/9.1/index.htm#t=Language_Reference%2FSystem_Events%2FOverview_of_System_Events.htm

(the documentation is for version 9.1 but works the same on 10)

Regards,

There is (or at least there used to be) a way to "swap out" the language that an eSpace was written into a separate locale, while pulling in another of the languages into the module via some command line option.

I wonder if that is still there, and it it implicitly changes the default locale when the module loads?
