Please copy the list on all replies; use “reply all” (the double-arrow).
Please either open a bug with the stack trace of the crash or post it here; if
you use the crash log you please cut it off after the stack trace, as the
hundred lines of dylib information just adds clutter. If you can, please use a
debug build of gtk-mac-integration and of your application so that the line
numbers are present in the stack trace.
Menu items moved from other menus need to be translated in the application
using whatever localization scheme you use for the rest of the program; that’s
normally gettext for Gtk applications.
You can’t just change the keys in the strings. You also have to change the keys
in the table lookup. For example, the “Hide” lookup is at line 246 in
gtkosxapplication_quartz.c:
menuitem = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle: [[NSLocalizedStringFromTable
(@"Hide", @"GtkosxApplication", @"Hide menu item title") autorelease]
stringByAppendingFormat: @" %@", appname]
action: @selector (hide: ) keyEquivalent: @"h”];
That’s not really the right way to do that, since it forces the app name to the
end of the string. It also won’t find the key “Hide %@“ in your revised strings
file. It needs to be something like (because I haven’t tested it)
menuitem = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle: [stringWithFormat:
[NSLocalizedStringFromTable (@“Hide %@", @"GtkosxApplication", @"Hide menu
item title") autorelease], appname]
action: @selector (hide: ) keyEquivalent: @"h”];
