Oops… :shock:

I went too far this time.Simpler way is to put ${labelName} in xsd & define properties in language.properties files as:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
   xmlns:eJustice_Small_Claims="http://www.alfresco.org/alfresco/eJustice_Small_Claims,http://www.alfresco.org/alfresco/ejustxsd"
   targetNamespace="http://www.alfresco.org/alfresco/eJustice_Small_Claims,http://www.alfresco.org/alfresco/ejustxsd"
   xmlns:alf="http://www.alfresco.org"
   elementFormDefault="qualified">

<xs:element name="eJustice_Small_Claims">
      <xs:annotation>
         <xs:documentation source="ospi.label">eJustice_Small_Claims_Title</xs:documentation>
         <xs:documentation source="ospi.description">eJustice_Small_Claims_Desc</xs:documentation>
      </xs:annotation>
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
         <xs:element name="eJustice_language" type="eJustice_Small_Claims:LanguageSelect"
                default="English">
               <xs:annotation>
                   <xs:appinfo>
                     <alf:label>${language}</alf:label>
                     <alf:appearance>compact</alf:appearance>
                    </xs:appinfo>
               </xs:annotation>
         </xs:element>
….
</xs:schema>

where "language" property is defined in English property file as :

language=Language

& for Geman label is

language=Sprache

Simply update properties files as per language under "../WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/messages" folder in alfresco war with your required labels & alfresco will do the rest.
