Fallback language for localized collection's attribute doesn't work correctly

[Former Member]

We have a field in Hybris model configured as String localized collection like :

---

 <attribute qualifier="xyz" type="localized:StringCollection">
     <modifiers optional="true" read="true" write="true" />
     <persistence type="property" />

---

In such case Hybris fallback strategy doesn't work correctly . Only the session language is taken into consideration. If a localization doesn't exist for the given language the result will be empty even it has the fallback localization. Somebody knows is it Hybris issue(or feature 🙂 ) or something wrong with the model configuration. As workaround is to create custom attribute handler . But possibly exists more "pretty" solution

In this situation, I recommend using a relation instead of StringCollection. You will have much more flexibility as well as you will get rid of this fallback language issue.
