Chapter 11. Tagging and tracing Program Integrated Information 185to explain the detailed implementation of the ID tags, except for Section 5.6, whichis about a Java application (which also shows that our approach is not limited toCATIA). Other systems can apply our approach. In Section 5.1, we show the PIItext resource files supported by our tools. In Sections 5.2 and 5.3, we show thePII ID tag format and the prefix architecture of an ID tag, respectively. Then weexplain the ID tag generation program in Section 5.4. The comprehensive indexfile for TVT testers is explained in detail in Section 5.5. Finally, in Section 5.6, weexplain how our approach is used with Java.5.1 Supported PII text resource filesThis section explains the PII text resource files that we support in CATIA. Each PIIfile includes many lines in the following format:key=stringThe left side of the equal sign is called a PII key. The right side of the equal sign iscalled a PII string. The set of a key, equal sign, and string is called a PII entry. TheJava properties file for internationalisation is an example of this standard format.CATIA uses this standard format, but it has some special characteristics. It requiresquotation marks around strings and it uses a semicolon “;” to separate the lines.The file has file type extension CATNls and is called a Cat NLS file. The followingare examples format of some lines of the original language....key1=“Link Manager1”;key2=“Link Manager2”;key3=“Link Manager3”;...Usually the key string is quite long. The following example is slightly longer thanthe average length:NoFilteringOnVisuMode.Title=”Filtering Management”;When we translate an original language file into a target language file, the PIIstrings, the right sides of the lines, are translated into the target language. If wetranslate the examples of these Link-Manager lines, the translated PII file shouldinclude the following lines....key1=“ 1”;key2=“ 2”;key3=“ 3”;...
