Hi Scott, <br>
<br>
I had a quick look and I committed back about three lines of changes
to test-language-stuff.php.<br>
<br>
As long as you dont append .php to the page url , everything loads
through the main site and the print_r stuff now prints out so that
it is readable in a browser. :)<br>
<br>
How does one set the language to use?<br>
<br>

I just checked in the minimal amount of code I've sucked in from
joomla to get the language stuff to work, and a test script that
demonstrates how to load the classes and get the language files
loaded. Currently the script just spits out a print_r of a couple
classes and some debugging output. So, it's not sexy and pretty
yet, but it works. Oh, please run the test language script on the
command line, don't try to load it with a browser, I didn't html
encode anything yet. And the one language fileset was copied
straight from joomla 1.6 main en-GB files.<br>
<br>
So, some decisions I've struggled with this week:<br>
<ul>
<li>Do we want to leave these classes named J* (ie JLoader,
JLanguage, JFolder, JPath, JFile, JObject, JFactory, etc) or
do we come up with our own prefix? If we do, what prefix
should we use? Do we want a prefix at all? (BTW: I'm pretty
sure JFactory can probably go away when we load this stuff
into our existing Factory class)<br>
</li>
<li>I am struggling to wrap my brain around the Error classes
(ours and theirs). Can someone help me figure out how to get
the commented out Error handling to actually function with our
error handling classes? And give me a brief explaination of
how the error handling classes work and what happens for the
user?</li>
</ul>
As this is a first stab, I'm sure there are still things that can
be eliminated or cleaned up yet. I'm thinking all the XML
indirection methods maybe could be consolidated a bit :-)<br>

I agree with Scott here, Mark. I think if he can work in the
same branch then you will automatically have some else who
will test your work (and the other way round). Much better
than another dead branch with no-one to test or integrate.
Not that anything Scott does ends up being dead code ;-).<br>
The translation work doesn't impact the architecture in
itself, I hope.<br>

Yes, I saw the email come through about 5 hours after I'd
sent it...<br>
<br>
Brutal is fine :-) I am under no illusions of
"cooperation", but I'd thought that perhaps if we made
minimal changes to the pieces we wanted we could nearly
drop in replacements as Joomla made improvements. But,
after starting to look at the work needed, the number of
changes we will need to keep from sucking in the whole
framework (which I totally agree, we don't want the entire
framework) made this thought unrealistic.<br>
<br>
I understand the fear that perhaps adding
internationalization now will hurt the overall progress,
but I think this is an important piece, and I've now
become familiar enough with the joomla libraries, that I'm
not willing to just drop it at this point. I'm hopeful I
can hammer out a decent "framework" borrowed and inspired
by Joomla that will allow relatively easy translations
within a week or two. Plus, the current state of the
project says it's quite a long ways off from being
released; 3 months or more would be my guess. If we were
nearly ready for a release, I would be more easily swayed
away :-)<br>
<br>
Thanks for providing the reality check, I'll start
hacking, hammering, and reshaping things to work for us.<br>

<div>Hi Scott, <br>
<br>
Your emails did come through, i've just been too
busy to reply.<br>
<br>
I think the best idea is to take inspiration from
Joomla and other source files you have seen and
create your own that suits our requirements that as
Dave says won't bloat the project with un-needed
functions.<br>
<br>
I also think we should put translation on the todo
list for a point after we have got txsheet fully
working and reskinned. Ultimately my main concern
is that there are so many changes being made at the
moment, if we don't pool our resources and complete
them first, we will get to a point where all we
will have is a mess.<br>
