Setting a root folder

To begin the localization process, set a root folder, which stores:

• The localization database (l10n.db )
• The log file that logs the translation progress (l10n.log )
• Package definition files that you create for translation. (See Creating-a-localization-package-definition.)

The default root folder is the RemedyDeveloperStudioInstallDir\workspace\l10N folder.
