Overview
"Many [people] would simply love seeing their computer screen showing a lot less of English, and far more of their own language." -- gettext doc
Our aim is not only to provide a framework to ease the translation of Eiffel-written applications, allowing the user to chose his/her preferred language at runtime, but also to let the developer access informations and formats based on users' locale.
Milestones
M2: May ???
- design:
- file formats (files holding translated strings)
- code parser (extract strings to be translated from source code)
- globality (how to implement, the object should be shared between all modules)
- compile a list of basic features to provide (e.g. date/time format, system locale)
- collaborate with the Vision2_and_Unicode team
