#7873: B_TRANSLATE("String") between #ifdef and #endif not included in catalogs -------------------------+------------------------------- Reporter: taos | Owner: zooey Type: bug | Status: assigned Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: - General | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: localization, HTA Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All -------------------------+------------------------------- Comment (by pulkomandy): Well, actually it's possible to revert to the scheme used before introduction of B_COLLECTING_CATKEYS : {{{ static const char* kSomeString = B_TRANSLATE_MARK("Some String"); #ifdef FOO // ... new BMenuItem(B_TRANSLATE_NOCOLLECT(kSomeString)); // ... #endif }}} The problem with this is the string could end up in the binary (didn't check if it actually happens) So yes, having B_COLLECTING_CATKEYS around might still be helpful. It could be added in the jam rule as a preprocessor option, if we don't want it in an header. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7873#comment:10> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
