Retrieve Custom Labels Translation with Apex

Hi,

 

We are using Custom Labels for the translation of our application. In Apex Code, the method getLabel() retrieve the value of a given label in the language of the user. For example to retrieve the value of custom label we use: 

 

Schema.DescribeFieldResult F = Quote__c.Quote_Comment__c.getDescribe();

F.getLabel();

 

This getLabel() method returns the text label in the language of the user. However, we would like to get it in other languages. 

 

Let's illustrate this with an example. We've built a multi-langual quote engine (that can print quote in pdf thanks to a Visualforce page). As of now the Quoteis generated in the language of the user. However, we would like the user to be able to manually select in which language the Quote needs to be printed.

Therefore we need to be able to retrieve all CustomLabels translation in the Apex Code controller of the page to display thefields in the correct language (as chosen by the user).

 

It does not seem possible to do something like getLabel('Spanish') to retrieve the label translated in Spanish. Does anyone can confirm Apex Code do not support such a functionality? 

 

Thanks a lot in advance, 

 

Alexandre

"Print Anything" App Performance - Slow Queries

Hi,
 
I'm trying to use the application "Print Anything" from the Appexchange to generate a Html printout containing key information of an Account. This includes some Account fields and records from related lists (open Opportunities, Cases, ...).
 
Print Anything is a very powerfull application but I'm having some issues with its execution speed. It is very slow for queries returning more than just a couple of rows. For example a SOQL query returning 10 Opportunities is executed in more than 15 seconds. In my case, it takes about 1 minute to get the full Account summary printout.
 
Could you please tell me if you've encountered similar perf issues with Print Anything.
 
Thanks a lot in advance,
