Re: [jboss-l10n] Fixing BRMS / BPMS 6.0 translations
Thank you for pointing that, Mike and Salaboy.
I'll check with translators (I guess most of them are subscribers of this mailing
list) and coordinate "fix" and "education".
Regards,
Toshiya

Subject: Re: Fixing BRMS / BPMS 6.0 translations
The current state is:
1) All the languages that are not causing issues are enabled
2) All the languages that are causing issues are commented out and not included in the
builds
Look here:
https://github.com/droolsjbpm/kie-wb-distributions/blob/master/kie-wb/kie...
It’s just matter of enabling the languages again to see all the error that those files are
causing.
Once we have all the languages working we can start to translate the missing screens, so
we can add the new variables to all the languages files.

Hi Toshiya,
IDK if you're who we need to talk to, but I'm sure you can direct me to the
appropriate person.
We've started pulling in various translations from Zanata and some are causing
problems. These are examples I've witnessed:-
(1) Use of certain characters, e.g. apostrophe. These need to be escaped with i.e.
replaced with two apostrophes.
(2) Removal of variable place-holders. A source string may contain {0} (or 1, 2, 3 etc).
This represents a place-holder where our code substitutes a value at runtime. These are
sometimes been removed which breaks our code.
There are various Jenkins jobs that can be examined to check our code compiles; but
failures due to i18n issues are hard to spot (or at least you'd need to know what to
look for).
How can we educate translators as to these issues; and ensure fixes are made to the
translation files in Zanata?
With kind regards,
Mike
