Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Basic i18n (Internationalization)

Note: This archive is from the project's previous web site, ethereal.com. This list is no longer active.

From: Juan Toledo <toledo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed, 16 May 2001 14:08:38 +0200
Ok. I've added the i18n infrastructure, and localized gtk/main.c into Spanish

To i18ize more files, this has to be added at the beginning

#ifdef ENABLE_NLS
#    include <libintl.h>
#    define _(String) gettext (String)
#    ifdef gettext_noop
#        define N_(String) gettext_noop (String)
#    else
#        define N_(String) (String)
#    endif
#else
/* Stubs that do something close enough.  */
#    define textdomain(String) (String)
#    define gettext(String) (String)
#    define dgettext(Domain,Message) (Message)
#    define dcgettext(Domain,Message,Type) (Message)
#    define bindtextdomain(Domain,Directory) (Domain)
#    define _(String) (String)
#    define N_(String) (String)
#endif

That's because I couldn't find an .h file that was included
by all programs...

To mark a string as translatable, it's extremely simple.
Instead of
	printf ("Hello, this is a translatable string");

you turn it into
	printf (_("Hello, this is a translatable string"));

The translators will do the rest in the po directory.
...only if the patch is approved, of course... :-)
