Re: [Nuxeo-localizer] Use of Catalog

[Juan David Ibáñez Palomar]

Err.. it's more simple than that, you don't need to create any
script..

Say "doc" is a LocalContent object:

 * if you type "doc.title" you'll get the title in the language
   that the language negotiation mechanism chooses, if you type
   "doc.getLocalAttribute('title')" you will get the same result;

 * if you type "doc.getLocalAttribute('title', 'fr') you'll get
   the title in french, if you type "doc.title_fr" you'll get
   the title in french too.

So, to index an object you should add to the Catalog the indexes
"title_en", "title_fr", "body_en", "body_fr" (for example). If it
doesn't works it's a bug.

The problem is that this is not well documented..
