- errorText()

Instead of this function, use the functions getCatStr() or getErrorText(). These functions allow the definition of own error messages dependent on specific error codes. The error codes are saved in the file _errors.cat in the directory <wincc_oa_path>/msg/<lang>, respectively in the same file in the project directory.
- getActiveLang()
Returns the active language. The function getActiveLangId() provides the same functionality but returns an OaLanguage enum.
- getActiveLangId()
Returns the active language as an OaLanguage Enum. This function is the same as getActiveLang() but uses the OaLanguage Enum as return value.
- getAllLangIds()
Returns a vector of all languages available in WinCC OA.
- getCatStr()
This function exports a catalog entry.
- getGlobalLangId()
Returns the sequence number of a project language from the lang.dir file <wincc_oa_path>/nls. This means that you pass an index of a project language (from the config file) as a parameter and the sequence number of this language from thelang.dir file will be returned.
- getLangIdx()
The function getLangIdx() returns the sequence number of the passed language (language that has been passed as a parameter) from the project config file. If you, for example, pass the language ID "ru_RU.utf8" (Russian) as a parameter and this language is on the third place in the config file, the function returns 2. The function returns 2 instead of 3 because the index of the languages in the config file starts at 0.
