Hi,

we are using currently microsoft crm in germany and the language is also german. I generate all classes with crmsvcutil.exe and it worked fine till i needed to change values for OptionSets in plugins. Somehow when i create a new OptionSet we store the labels in german if crmsvcutil.exe generates classes i get this:

public enum prg_belegstatus

{

[System.Runtime.Serialization.EnumMemberAttribute()]

UnknownLabel100000000 = 100000000,

[System.Runtime.Serialization.EnumMemberAttribute()]

UnknownLabel100000001 = 100000001,

[System.Runtime.Serialization.EnumMemberAttribute()]

UnknownLabel100000002 = 100000002,

[System.Runtime.Serialization.EnumMemberAttribute()]

UnknownLabel100000003 = 100000003,

[System.Runtime.Serialization.EnumMemberAttribute()]

UnknownLabel100000004 = 100000004,

}

Generating classes for the built-in OptionSets is working fine and i get the correct enum classes.

Is there a way that crmsvcutil.exe is using the german labels if the language set to german ?

This is really an annoying bug because i wanted to prevent to hardcode OptionSet values in the code.

Kind Regards

Markus

I had the same problem (except with Dutch labels). You can modify the NamingService.cs in the sample project and recompile to support other languages.

/// <summary>
/// Handles building the name for an Option of an OptionSet.
/// </summary>
public string GetNameForOption(OptionSetMetadataBase optionSetMetadata, OptionMetadata optionMetadata, IServiceProvider services) {
string name = string.Empty;
var stateOptionMetadata = optionMetadata as StateOptionMetadata;
if (stateOptionMetadata != null) {
name = stateOptionMetadata.InvariantName;
}
else {
foreach (LocalizedLabel localizedLabel in (Collection<LocalizedLabel>)optionMetadata.Label.LocalizedLabels) {
if (localizedLabel.LanguageCode == 1033 || localizedLabel.LanguageCode == 1043) // English or Dutch
name = localizedLabel.Label;
}
}

if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(name)) {
name = string.Format((IFormatProvider)CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, "UnknownLabel{0}", new object[1] { (object)optionMetadata.Value.Value });
}

name = CreateValidName(name);
name = EnsureValidIdentifier(name);
name = EnsureUniqueOptionName(optionSetMetadata, name);
return name;
}

private static Regex nameRegex = new Regex("[a-z0-9_]*", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase | RegexOptions.Compiled | RegexOptions.CultureInvariant);
private static string CreateValidName(string name) {
string input = name.Replace("$", "CurrencySymbol_").Replace("(", "_");
var stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
for (Match match = NamingService.nameRegex.Match(input); match.Success; match = match.NextMatch())
stringBuilder.Append(match.Value);
return ((object)stringBuilder).ToString();
}

No, in the SDK is an extension which generates the picklists, you need to make the changes there and recompile.
