For example i have things like the login where i have a variable that tells the type of error. $this->translate('page-error-' . $error); When i auto update from poedit this gets rea...
What are the alternatives to gettext for software internationalization on projects not released under the GNU GPL? ...
We have a multilingual (PHP) application and use gettext for i18n. There are a few classes in the backend/model that return messages or message formats for printf(). We use xgettext to extract the strings that we want to translate. We apply the gettext function T_() in the frontend/view - this seems to be where it belongs. So far we ke...
I would like to have an easy to use way to write code like: #include <iostream> int main (){ std::cout << "hello, world!\n"; } but that supports i18n. Here is an example using gettext(): #include <libintl.h> #include <iostream> int main (){ std::cout << gettext("hello, world!\n"); } This can then be processed by xgettext to...

I have a big ol' .po file containing all the user-facing strings I need for my PHP app. I'd like to know if there's a PHP function I can use to get a list of all the msgid strings stored in the .po or the .mo. I didn't see a published PHP function that does this. Anyone know of something similar, or will I have to manually parse my ...
Wikipedia entry for GNU gettext shows an example where the locale is just the lanuage, "fr". Whereas the i18n gettext() “hello world” example has the locale value with both the language and country, "es_MX". I have modified the "es_MX" example to use just the lanuage, "es", but it produces the English text rather the expected Spanish. c...
Using Complete C++ i18n gettext() “hello world” example I changed the locale from "es_MX" to "pl_PL" and the text from "hello, world!" to "Invalid input. Enter a string at least 20 characters long.". The Polish translation contains several characters that cause "invalid multibyte sequence" errors from msgfmt, "łąźó". The translated text ...
msgfmt “invalid multibyte sequence” error on a Polish text is corrected by manually editing the MIME Content-Type charset in the template file. Is there some command or option for the xgettext, msginit, msgfmt sequence for setting the MIME type? cat >plt.cxx <<EOF // plt.cxx #include <libintl.h> #include <locale.h> #include <iostream> i...

Here is an example using the answer to Complete C++ i18n gettext() “hello world” example as a base just changing the literal hello world to a static char* hws and char* hw.

Is there way of creating empty .mo file? Usually when starting new project I get stuck with this when there's no need for translations yet. I tried this with no luck: msgfmt /dev/null --output-file foo.mo ...
I've always heard about gettext - I know it's some sort of unix command to lookup a translation based on the string argument provided, and then produces a .pot file but can someone explain to me in layman's terms how this is taken care of in a web framework? I might get around to looking at how some established framework has done it, bu...
Hi, I'm on Rails 2.3.3 and using Haml 2.0.9 for my templates and Gettext-Rails 2.0.4 for the translation. Haml works like a charm and gettext is also working like it should. But I cant get Gettext to parse Haml Files when using "rake updatepo". I created a custom parser like this: # lib/haml_parser.rb require 'gettext_rails/tools' req...

I'm using the task gettext:find getttext_18n_rails. I tried before with the classic updatepo task but was the same. Perhaps am I missing any gem? ...
