Locale Communication Between Windchill PDMLink and EAI Components
The locale of the data being sent fromWindchill PDMLink to EAI components is set byWindchill PDMLink in a variable called com_infoengine_locale. This value is set in the custom header field of the JMS message sent fromWindchill PDMLink to Windchill business logic. Only one locale value can be set for each JMS message sent from Windchill PDMLink.Windchill ESI uses the following logic (in the order listed) to determine how to set the value for the com_infoengine_locale variable:
1. Determine if there is a locale value for the browser locale and set the com_infoengine_locale value based on this value.

This functionality is not available in Windchill ESI; however, a placeholder has been created for customization purposes.
2. Determine if there is a locale value for the user in the LDAP server and set the com_infoengine_locale value based on this value
3. Determine theWindchill PDMLink server locale and set the com_infoengine_locale value to this.
