The activity property files provide the language translations for internal labels.

The activity properties files for particular language versions are located in the directory %Valuemation_HOME%\resource\workflow and have names according to the ActivitiesText_XX.properties pattern, where XX is the abbreviation for the local language (e.g. EN for English or DE for German).

The keys in the properties file follow a simple naming convention, which we use in the Workflow Creation Tool wizards and in the WCT itself.

Let %MetaClassName% be a placeholder for the name (simple class name, not fully qualified) of the class that provides the meta information of an activity. That class implements MetaMetaNode from the description above.

.workflow.activity.%MetaClassName%.displayText = The name which is displayed as the name of the activity

.workflow.activity.%MetaClassName%.description = A short description of the activity to tell the user what this activity can be used for.

Let %argument% be a placeholder for an input or output argument.

.workflow.activity.%MetaClassName%.%argument% = The name which is displayed as the name of the argument of the activity

.workflow.activity.%MetaClassName%.%argument%.description = A short description of the activity to tell the user what this argument can be used for.
