I've been having a hard time trying to understand PyPy's translation. It looks like something absolutely revolutionary from simply reading the description, however I'm hard-pressed to find good documentation on actually translating a real world piece of code to something such as LLVM. Does such a thing exist? The official PyPy documen...
So I've looked at this use of the freebase API and I was really impressed with the translations of the name that it found. IE Rome, Roma, Rom, Rzym, Rooma,로마, 罗马市. This is because I have a database of some 5000+ location names and I would very much like all French, German or Korean translations for these English names. The problem is I ...
I'm currently working on upgrading a product for the Chinese market. The target is a ARMTDMI7 with a QVGA display. Most resources I've located on the net are targeted at desktop or web programming rather than embedded devices. Can anyone suggest some tools and resources that might be useful? What are the best techniques for extracting ...
I wrote a simple web service in C# using SharpDevelop (which I just got and I love). The client wanted it in VB, and fortunately there's a Convert To VB.NET feature. It's great. Translated all the code, and it builds. (I've been a "Notepad" guy for a long time, so I may seem a little old-fashioned.) But I get this error when I try t...
I found this open-source library that I want to use in my Java application. The library is written in C and was developed under Unix/Linux, and my application will run on Windows. It's a library of mostly mathematical functions, so as far as I can tell it doesn't use anything that's platform-dependent, it's just very basic C code. Also, ...
I would like to translate some C code to Python code or bytecode. The C code in question is what i'd call purely algorithmic: platform independent, no I/O, just algorithms and in-memory data structures. An example would be a regular expression library. Translation tool would process library source code and produce a functionally equival...
Please read the whole question. I'm not looking for an approach to managing multi-lingual content, but I'm looking for a way to actually get that multi-lingual content. This usually falls within technical recommendations on most projects I work on, and I hope someone can offer some help. We are working with a client now who has the perso...
I'm trying to come up with a way to estimate the number of English words a translation from Japanese will turn into. Japanese has three main scripts -- Kanji, Hiragana, and Katakana -- and each has a different average character-to-word ratio (Kanji being the lowest, Katakana the highest). Examples: computer: コンピュータ (Katakana - 6 chara...
Is there a tool out there that can automatically convert Python to Java? Can Jython do this? ...
It there a tool (preferably free) which will translate Oracle's PL/SQL stored procedure language into Postgresql's PL/pgSQL stored procedure language? ...
Hi, I believe several of us have already worked on a project where not only the UI, but also data has to be supported in different languages. Such as - being able to provide and store a translation for what I'm writing here, for instance. What's more, I also believe several of us have some time-triggered events (such as when expiring ...
I'm doing some PHP work recently, and in all the code I've seen, people tend to use few methods. (They also tend to use few variables, but that's another issue.) I was wondering why this is, and I found this note "A function call with one parameter and an empty function body takes about the same time as doing 7-8 $localvar++ operations. ...
I am in the process of translating an application into various languages, and I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with any translation services, and I'm not talking about Google Translate. :) Are there any that specialize more in the tech area, as opposed to just general translation? ...
Something i've always wondered, and I can't find any mention of it anywhere online. When a shop from, say Japan, writes code, would I be able to read it in english? Or do languages, like C, php, anything, have Japanese translations that they write? I guess what i'm asking is does every single coder in the world know enough english to us...
I have worked on several distributed client/server projects recently, and one pain point that we always run into is translating the DTO objects into our entities and vice-versa. I was wondering if anyone has a "simple" solution to this time sink? One thing I thought about was coming up with some sort of translation using reflection...I...
I am trying to develop an online translation service (sort of a personal challenge) but I have been looking for any guidelines or any way to see how it should be done and so far I have come up with nothing so. In a nutshell, does anybody knows where to find a service, code or explanation of how online translation works and/or guidelines ...
Is there any Ruby equivalent for Python's builtin zip function? If not, what is a concise way of doing the same thing? A bit of context: this came up when I was trying to find a clean way of doing a check involving two arrays. If I had zip, I could have written something like: zip(a, b).all? {|pair| pair[0] === pair[1]} I'd also acce...
I am working on a small parser that should accept input in a number of languages. I am going to have maybe 50 strings that will serve as keywords/anchors in parsing the input. In PHP, what would be the best way to organize these translated keywords? One possible solution that comes to my mind is to use an associative array. Like this: ...
I'm developing multi-language support for our web app. We're using Django's helpers around the gettext library. Everything has been surprisingly easy, except for the question of how to handle sentences that include significant HTML markup. Here's a simple example: Please <a href="/login/">log in</a> to continue. Here are the approache...
Has anyone converted a large (ours is 550,000 lines) program of Fortran 77 code to C++ ? What pitfalls did you run into ? Was the conversion a success ? Did you use a tool like for_c ( http://www.cobalt-blue.com/fc/fcmain.htm ) ? Was the resulting C++ code significantly faster or slower ? ...
