Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-5879:
---------------------------------
Attachment: derby-5879-07-aa-commentQueryPlanStrings.diff
Attaching derby-5879-07-aa-commentQueryPlanStrings.diff. This patch adds
comments to the query plan messages. The comments tell the translators that the
strings are complete even though they look like the kind of string fragments
which might cause concatenation problems when localized. Committed at
subversion revision 1369831.
Touches the following file:
M java/engine/org/apache/derby/loc/messages.xml
> Fix problems in English messages disclosed by a localization audit.

> The team which is localizing the 10.9 messages would like to audit our
> existing messages to ensure that they are easy to translate. A quick glance
> at their audit results shows many issues in the following categories:
> 1) Multi-line messages whose formatting confuses the translators. Translators
> tend to be language experts and not experts in the arcana of how Java
> properties files are formatted. I am hoping that these issues can be
> addressed by simply prefixing the multi-line messages with comments,
> explaining the arcane formatting.
> 2) Grammar, punctuation, and capitalization problems. I think we should just
> clean these up.
> I am filing this issue as a place to hold patches which address issues raised
> by the localization audit.
