Description Vince Kraemer 2010-03-19 16:26:35 UTC

If I create a library using LibraryManager.createLibrary(String,String,Map) or LibraryManager.createURILibrary(String,String,Map), the name is used as the display name.

If I create a library through the layer/library definition file strategy, I can set a DisplayName, that can be localized and human-friendly.

there are situation where we must create a libraries programmatically and they are not amenable to i18n/l10n.

The easiest solution is to add a new pair of create*Library methods:

LibraryManager.create.*Library(String type, String name, String displayName, Map content)
