How to load translation for static library widget
-
@SGaist said:
To add to @kshegunov , the note concerns the use of QTranslator shown in the example i.e. setup of the language at application startup and no support of dynamic translations.
How the application doesn't support dynamic translations? Take a look into this line it calls
changeEventand if you run the app. you'll find thatTesterloads the translations dynamically correctly while it doesn't call translations for static library widget because I don't know how to do it!Moderatorswrote on 10 Jan 2016, 10:46 last edited by kshegunov 1 Oct 2016, 10:52How the application doesn't support dynamic translations?
He was referring to the note in the documentation I was citing, and was explaining that it is only relevant when there is no support for dynamic translation.

You do it, like you're doing it now. Here's the thing, a static library is nothing more then a bunch of .obj files put together. Linking a static library just includes them into your application's binary. This means, that there is nothing different between widgets that come from a static library and these declared in your application (see @AlterX's comment, he mentioned that). That's why I said you're asking the wrong question. Your translation loading looks perfectly fine to me, and it has nothing to do with static or dynamic libraries - you need to look elsewhere to solve the problem. Do you have any output in the creator's windows that might suggest your translation is not loaded? Do you get the "Failed to load a translation for QT in your local language" message printed?
I tried to use Q_INIT_RESOURCE as mentioned in this line but unfortunately it makes things worst.
Yes you should do that for all the resources in your static library. But according to this it should be placed in the beginning of
main().Kind regards.

No

No. I get

Something is amiss here, let's take it from the top. You said that you get the "Failed to load a translation for QT in your local language" message, but this message is to be shown when this fails:myTranslator->load(*local, QLatin1String("tester"), QLatin1String("_"), QLatin1String(":/i18n"))This particular line is in your application and tries to load an application translation, where does a static library resource come in play here? Could you tell what is the current language you're using and its iso code (you could use
QLocale::language()andQLocale::languageToString), and make sure there's a matching translation file?Kind regards.

I said I get Failed to load translation from static libraryIndeed you did, it's my mistake, sorry.

Could you verify that this file is available? For example what does
QFile::exists(":/languages/arabic")return, true or false? If the file exists then the problem is with the actual loading, if the file is not found, then I guess there's a problem with the resource initialization.Kind regards.

After reviewing the project I discovered there are two "resources.qrc" the first one in the static library and the other in tester app. so I supposed this maybe makes Qt confused so I renamed one of them to a different name but unfortunately I still get same result.

Hi
Maybe tryQDirIterator it(":", QDirIterator::Subdirectories); while (it.hasNext()) { qDebug() << it.next(); }to have a look how the files are named in the running exe to to verify
that they are indeed under ":/i18n" and paths are as you expect.wrote on 10 Jan 2016, 12:17 last edited by mbnoimi 1 Oct 2016, 12:18@mrjj said:

What about loading like this:translator->load("arabic", ":/languages");And as a second suggestion: I think you should create another
QTranslatorobject for the second translation file.Kind regards.

Silly question number 2.
The test calls ui->retranslateUi(this);
void Tester::changeEvent(QEvent *event)
{
if (event->type() == QEvent::LanguageChange) {
ui->retranslateUi(this);
} else
QWidget::changeEvent(event);
}
But tester ui->retranslate() knows about the widgets from the library ?
retranslateUi() just call all ->setText for elements inserted on the UI.
How can it know about widgets in the Lib?
Who calls widget_in_lib->setText? -

retranslatedoesn't exist and I don't know how to create an alternative to it :( -

well for dynamic translation, meaning load translation AFTER keyboard been created would be to call
void WidgetKeyBoard::createKeyboard(void) again.
As it seems to be the only place with tr(text);
retranslateUi() is very simple in all programs. it simply just sets the texts again
and the tr function gets the new text from the active translation.
Alternatively you need enum all widgets (in keyboard), get the text and re-set it via tr / directly look up trans text.
But it can be messy if many types of Widgets as then u need to handle the "setText" for each. -

void WidgetKeyBoard::createKeyboard(void) again.I tried to call
createKeyboard()once again as following but still gives same result although this function callstr()so it suppose to do what you talked about!void Tester::changeEvent(QEvent *event) { if (event->type() == QEvent::LanguageChange) { ui->retranslateUi(this); myKeyboard->createKeyboard(); } else QWidget::changeEvent(event); } -

Hi
Maybe you can
delete myKeyboard;
myKeyboard = new Keyboard(this);
as im not sure if calling createKeyboard() for same instance is 100% ok. (did not try it)Then there is the context thing.
for mainwindow, its "mainwindow" (doh), but I do wonder about the translation that comes from static.Since they are linked into "main", I assume its context is the same as main (tester) but if the
qm is different, it will not work.So open them (qms) in Linguist and check the context they were extracted as.
then try with
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qcoreapplication.html#translateTo test a translation with that context and see if it does resolve.
First then I would worry about tr working in createKeyboard()
If I may say so.
update:
Context is "WidgetKeyBoard"
So calling createKeyboard() should be in the right context as we are in that class.So testing with qcoreapplication.html#translate
to see if all is loaded and happy. -
