Language handling by Quanvert DSC
When reading a Quanvert data source, the Quanvert metadata source component (MDSC) sets the base language of the generated Metadata Model (MDM) document as follows:
If the MR Init MDM Language connection property is included in the connection to the Quanvert DSC and is not empty, the Quanvert DSC sets the MDM base language to the value of that property.
Else, if the folder that contains the Quanvert project or multiproject includes a file called qvlang.txt, the Quanvert DSC sets the MDM base language to the Language setting in that file. The Language setting must consist of a single line in qvlang.txt, as shown in the following example, which sets the MDM base language to French - Canada (FRC):
Language = FRC
Else, if the MR Init Output Locale connection property (see Connection properties) is included in the connection to the Quanvert DSC, the Quanvert DSC sets the MDM base language to the value of that property.
Else, the Quanvert DSC sets the MDM base language to the system locale, if it is valid.
Else, the Quanvert DSC sets the MDM base language to English - United States (ENU).
When a client application (such as Metadata Model Explorer) does not allow you to pass connection properties to the Quanvert MDSC, use the Language setting in the qvlang.txt file to set the base language.
