Purpose¶
The module TestMultiLanguage shows how to use multi-language support.
Details¶
The following lines must be added at the <modulename>.script file:
hasTranslation = yes
translationModules = ""
translationLanguages = de,jp
The translationLanguages contains the used translated languages (additional to default/english). (A .ts file will be created for the used languages).
After saving the script file, the following “Create/Update Translation Files” context menu entry is available:
The .ts files will be created by clicking on the “Create/Update Translation Files” context menu entry.
(In this example two ts files will be created: TestMultiLanguage_de.ts and TestMultiLanguage_jp.ts)
At the .ts files, the translated words must be entered. You can use any text editor or the QtLinguist tool (recommended).
When using QtLinguist, the adapted files must be released. (Menu > File > Release). Now the .qm files are created.
An other way to create the .qm files is to use the Qt function ‘lrelease.exe’ in *.bat files (See example CreateQmFileExsample.bat)
To switch the language, the MLab variable “Locale” must be set to using the desired language.
See example function call for ‘German’ language: MLAB.setVariable("Locale", "de_DE")
