I have some code in a proprietary language. Its specially generated to make "plugin-code" and formulars. The main program is developed in c++.
The code looks like
a$ = pm("Datum")
b$ = pm("Seite %1!", page$)
The first argument in the pm() function is the text to be translated. "%1"... should be replaced by the following arguments, that must be strings. "a$", "b$" and "page$" are string variables.
The handout says, to use this function, I need a "foreign language catalogue". To make this I have to use "linguist" and "lrelease".
I have installed (all version 5.12.3)
- linguist
- lrelease
- lpupdate
So how could I make language files?
I tried lupdate -recursive '.' -ts HAUSMITTEIL_de.ts (see here) but get the message
Scanning directory '.'...
Updating 'HAUSMITTEIL_de.ts'...
Found 0 source text(s) (0 new and 0 already existing)
and a XML file HAUSMITTEIL_de.ts
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf8"?>
<!DOCTYPE TS>
<TS version="2.1" language="de_DE">
</TS>
I miss the strings to be translated.
