	Changing the Project Default Language

The following procedure changes the default, or starting, language for a project. If you want to change languages within an application, in effect making it a multilingual application, you must write some Java code and employ that within your application. See Changing the Default Language within an Application.

To change the default language for a speech project:

In the Navigator view, right-click the project directory. From the pop-up context menu, click Properties.

Dialog Designer displays the Properties for projectName dialog box, where projectName is the name of your project.

In the contents pane on the left, select Dialog Designer.

Select the Web Descriptor tab.

Select the entry that has sage.startlanguage as the entry in the Name column.

Click Edit.

Dialog Designer displays the Edit context parameter dialog box.

In the Value field, enter the name of the language to use as the new default language for the application.

CAUTION:

Make sure the language name you enter in this field is a valid project language for the project. Otherwise, if the language does not exist or is named differently, the application generates run-time errors and the application does not execute properly.

To exit the Edit context parameter dialog box, click OK.

In the Properties for projectName dialog box, click OK.
