Language fields

New in version 11.2: The TCA field type called language has been added to TYPO3 Core.

New in version 13.0: When using the language type, TYPO3 takes care of generating the according database field. A developer does not need to define this field in an extension's ext_tables.sql file.

This field type displays all languages available in the current site context. Outside of the site context it displays all languages available in the installation.

A special language All languages is automatically added.
