Frameworks/Epics/KF5.0 Release Preparation/l10n
TODO
For each framework the following needs to be done:
Mark strings translatable
Make sure all strings that need to be translated are either wrapped by i18n*() or tr*() depending on the translation framework of choice.
Extract translatable strings
If there is no Messages.sh file in the repository, create a src/Messages.sh file. See http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Localization/i18n_Build_Systems#handling_i18n_in_KDE.27s_subversion_repository for details on how to create and test it.
If there are Messages.sh files, check they are still relevant.
Things to test:
- Make sure the Messages.sh files extract all the files
- Make sure the Messages.sh files create catalogs with correct names. Look out for catalogs with '4' suffix, or catalogs whose name would clash with an existing KDE4 library.
Make sure the translations are loaded
If using ki18n, make sure it follows http://api.kde.org/frameworks-api/frameworks5-apidocs/ki18n/html/prg_guide.html#link_lib . In short: Check all files with calls to i18n*() define TRANSLATION_DOMAIN before including KLocalizedString.
If using tr() ... no clue, someone should care about this. Probably have a look at how Trojita does it for Qt4 and try to generalize for KF5
