Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UI5/MP_CP039 - Texts node must either contain inline texts or a single 'i18n' property ?

  The SAP error message /UI5/MP_CP039 indicates an issue with the way text resources are defined in your SAPUI5 application. Specifically, it points out that the "Texts" node in your XML view or JSON model must either contain inline texts or a single i18n property for internationalization.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when:
  
  The "Texts" node in your view is incorrectly structured.
  You have defined multiple text entries in the "Texts" node without using the i18n property.
  The application is expecting either inline text definitions or a single reference to an internationalization (i18n) resource bundle, but both are not provided correctly.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that the "Texts" node is structured correctly. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Use Inline Texts: If you want to use inline texts, ensure that you define them directly within the "Texts" node. For example:
  <Texts>
      <Text id="text1">This is an inline text</Text>
  </Texts>
  
  
  Use i18n Property: If you want to use internationalization, ensure that you have a single i18n property pointing to your resource bundle. For example:
  <Texts>
      <Text id="text1" i18n="your.i18n.key"/>
  </Texts>
  
  
  Avoid Mixing: Do not mix inline texts and i18n properties within the same "Texts" node. Choose one approach based on your requirements.
  
  
  Check i18n File: If you are using the i18n property, ensure that the key you are referencing exists in your i18n resource file (e.g., i18n.properties).
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Internationalization (i18n): This is a common practice in SAPUI5 applications to support multiple languages. You typically define your texts in a properties file and reference them using the i18n property.
  XML Views: When working with XML views in SAPUI5, ensure that your structure adheres to the expected format to avoid such errors.
  Debugging: Use the browser's developer tools to inspect the application and check for any additional errors or warnings that may provide more context.
  
  By following these guidelines, you should be able to resolve the /UI5/MP_CP039 error and ensure that your SAPUI5 application handles text resources correctly.
