Hey,

I've mailed you on your mailing list, and there was no reaction, the mistake is still on your webpage. Is there still happening something? And where could I obtain support, because here I didn't?

    Hi,

    the gettext project is not dead. Your email never showed up in my inbox and was probably marked as spam. Sorry.

    The mailing list is still a good place to ask for support or the bug tracker if you found a specific issue that needs fixing.

    Felix

    Hi,

    No problem. It was this mail here:
    https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=45E97041.7000504%40gmail.com&forum_name=xnap-commons-devel

    At the moment I've got the problem that my text is not translated and I don't know why. Is it explained somewhere what the en/de.properties are for? I've created the resource bundles, but not more, is that not enough?

    tnx,
    Simon

    If msgfmt was run successfully, src/conf should look like this:

    find src/conf/
    src/conf/
    src/conf/app
    src/conf/app/i18n
    src/conf/app/i18n/Messages_de$1.class
    src/conf/app/i18n/Messages_de.class

    Make sure src/conf is on your classpath and follow the last steps in the tutorial, placing the properties file in you top level package.

    Here is my dir structure:
    $ find
    .
    ./po
    ./po/de.po
    ./po/keys.pot
    ./conf
    ./conf/app
    ./conf/app/i18n
    ./I18n$EmptyResourceBundle$EmptyStringEnumeration.class
    ./Messages.properties
    ./i18n.properties
    ./LocaleChangeListener.java
    ./I18n.java
    ./I18n.class
    ./I18nFactory.class
    ./I18n$EmptyResourceBundle.class
    ./I18nManager.java
    ./Abc.class
    ./I18nFactory.java
    ./LocaleChangeEvent.class
    ./LocaleChangeEvent.java
    ./I18nManager.class
    ./Abc.java
    ./LocaleChangeListener.class
    ./I18nManager$WeakLocaleChangeListener.class

    I've created the Messages.properties by myself (via touch Messages.properties). The content of the i18n.properties is now «basename=conf/app/i18n», and I gueses that is wrong. What do I exactly have to set there? The Abc.java is the test file with the text which should be translated.

    Why did you unpack or compile gettext-commons instead of using the gettext-commons.jar?

    The gettext-commons classes don't seem to be in their right package. Further, Messages.properties should not be created by touch, but should be the generated by the gettext tools.

    Sorry for my late response, I had a lot of things to do.

    I have unpacked it because then I can see what happens in the source, otherwise Eclipse would not display it. The comments are useful too. And, I don't know how to use a jar file ;)

    Do the files have to be in the package org.and.so.on? Does that matter? The Messages.properties hasn't been generated ...

    The Gettext Commons project has been moved to http://code.google.com/p/gettext-commons/.
