I know, I think that it is the docs that are a bit fuzzy on this subject. From my own attempts It looks like you can either use the keys from the first lookup-table in l10n.php. Japanese should then be set to jpn. Alternatively you can use ja since it will not be found in the first table and the class will look for it in the second one and find ja there. first lookup: /* Japanese */ 'jpn' => 'ja', second lookup 'ja' => array('language' => 'Japanese', 'locale' => 'jpn', 'localeFallback' => 'jpn', 'charset' => 'utf-8'), It causes me the least amount of headache to set the language to the same value as the folder-name where the translation is located. This works for most languages I make use of even though the folder is actually chosen from the "locale" key in the second lookup... I think. Glossery: first lookup = var $__l10nMap @ lines 95-172 second lookup = var $__l10nCatalog @ lines 181-320 > Another question though: the manual states that: > > > Any Controller that uses localized content should include the use of > > the L10n CakePHP utility class. > > uses('L10n'); > > This doesn't seem to be necessary. Additionally, isn't var $uses = > array('L10n') the preferred method? I agree. I think this is a leftover from v 1.1 or something. So far I have only had to use the Configure directive to set the language. uses() would in 1.2 be called App::import() in this context. $uses and uses() were two different things in earlier versions or Cake. I guess we will soon have sorted this out enough to update some documentation. :) /Martin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
