Max Rydahl Andersen updated JBIDE-2972:
---------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 3.0.0.cr1
3.0.0.GA
hmm - that might work; would also be a good way of explicit stating which resources that
actually needs/want translation.
The files that I could definitly see this done for are the Eclipse resource properties;
i.e. those who have a .properties and .java pair.
i.e. Messages.java/Messages.properties.
Where it gets harder is for the root properties files which is used by the
plugin.xml/feature.xml parts.
But they are always named plugin.properties so that might just be another standard
name....
Following that thought wouldn't it be just as simple for you to say that the default
translations you need is
/plugin.properties and **/Messages.properties ?
That still won't cover the templates/xmodel which is a different beast.
I would think getting the Eclipse resource bundle file/class called the same (and only
have one per plugin) would be a better first step?
Move translatable .properties files from src/ into resources/text/
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-2972
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-2972
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Cleanup
Reporter: Sean Flanigan
Fix For: 3.0.0.cr1, 3.0.0.GA
See http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jbosstools-dev/2008-October/002268.html for
background, particularly item number 4. If all translatable resources are kept in
standard locations, the localization build can be simplified and more reliable.
In JBoss Tools, I have identified translatable .properties in the
following directories under various ${plugin} dirs:
src/main
src
jbosscore
jbossui
templates
template-src
One example is the file
/org.jboss.ide.eclipse.archives.core/src/main/org/jboss/ide/eclipse/archives/core/ArchivesCoreMessages.properties
but there are similar files in every project.
Rather than create a similar jira for each and every project, I'd be happy to do the
work myself, with a little help (I haven't done much work with Eclipse plugins):
Could someone please confirm what needs be changed to move this file into
/org.jboss.ide.eclipse.archives.core/resources/text/org/jboss/ide/eclipse/archives/core/ArchivesCoreMessages.properties
and still be available on the classpath for Eclipse and PDE Build and anywhere else
important.
At the moment, I can think of these changes:
1. add another classpathentry in Eclipse's .classpath (through Eclipse's Java
Build Path screen)
2. edit sources.archivescore.jar in build.properties (through Eclipse's Build
Configuration editor)
Is that all that is needed?
