Hi.

AFAIU, in order to change the Locale used in a certain statement I should call SesameManager.setLocale(...) before the operation (but I'm also unsure of this).

What I'm doing is:

                final SesameManager em = ...;
                final Concept concept = ...;

                final Locale localeSave = em.getLocale();
                
                em.setLocale(Locale.ENGLISH);
                concept.getSkosAltLabels.add("ENGLISH: " + englishName);
                em.setLocale(Locale.ITALIAN);
                concept.getSkosAltLabels.add("ITALIAN: " + italianName);

                em.setLocale(localeSave);

But I end up with this:

<skos:Concept rdf:about="urn:bluebill:concept#dd11aac0-f5f8-11dd-a25e-002332c672e6">
        <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Thing"/>
        <skos:prefLabel>Ardea cinerea</skos:prefLabel>
        <skos:inScheme rdf:resource="urn:bluebill:taxonomy/Birds"/>
        <skos:altLabel>ENGLISH: Grey Heron</skos:altLabel>
        <skos:altLabel>ITALIAN: Airone cenerino</skos:altLabel>
</skos:Concept>

that is, I don't see the language attribute inside skos:altLabel. Of course, my prefixes ENGLISH: and ITALIAN: are for debugging purposes only.

Thanks.

Re: sk

The locale is only applied to properties that have a @localized annotation on them. The getSkosAltLabels property that ships with Elmo does not contain that annotation (maybe it should?). You may want to consider forking the skos jar and making your own modifications and add the @localized annotation.

Re: sk

Thanks. Forking is a delicate thing, so I think I'll go instead patching my code and explicitly creating some RDF statements. I'll open an issue about @localized in skos.Concept.

In any case, I suppose that for @localized properties the code I've posted is ok, right?
