Can you explain it more?
I want not search through the sourcecode, because it makes it less easy.
How does an address like $040012a help you find the source?

All I need is all caller adresses of p1 in the program.
Or an incremented counter at compiletime.
Both seems impossible by now.

If p1 is called then I can see which snippet was not yet called.
If the compilerincremented counter at the end is 500, then I need 500 snippet
entries and I can see which entry already was called by the program during
execution.


I am still trying to understand what exactly you try to archive.

What I understand sofar:

-  your program has a fixed amount of text snippets in a given language
QUESTION: are those snippets unique? Or can there be 2 individual snippets, that have the same text, but must be treated as different?
-  you want to implement a method that translates them
- you want to ensure this method was called exactly (or is it at least?) once, for each snippet.

For some reason that I do not understand yet, you need a unique identifier for each snippet.

Well if the text of the snippets is unique, then you can use the text itself.
So instead of using $040012a as token, you can use 'hello world'

----------
That is, I still do not see, why you go this way at all.
You must have a list of all translations somewhere, and somehow you translate each snippet. For updating translations, you can
1) add each snippet that has no translation to a list
2) mark each translation, once it was used, and when the app finishes list all translations that where not used.

Or explain again what you try to do?
