Hello,
I did checkin a major change today. The translation data for JOSM plugins
is no longer contained in the JOSM core, but now each plugin has
individual files.
This has a lot of advantages:
- JOSM core is smaller (should not be much, but a little bit)
- Plugin translation is independent of core version
- 3rd party plugins can use the same translation infrastructure:
There is a perl script creating the files from .pot and .po
- It is much cleaner design
It also has some disadvantages:
- Much more files in SVN
- The I18N update process is much slower now
- Plugins carry all translations of a plugin including the ones already
present in core (I could remove these, but I wanted to keep the core
independence as told bove) - For many-plugin-users this may increase
size a bit.
I did not change the Launchpad translation method, so Launchpad still has
only one project with all texts included. I think splitting this has no
real advantages. I only changed the order a bit, so that plugin texts
should be always last (previous the came after core and before presets and
other stuff).
ATTENTION: This change needed rebuilding of ALL plugins. I may have made
errors, so please be aware of trouble and report such when it occurs.
Plugins scripting and contourmerge aren't developed in SVN anymore, so I
dropped them. Links to external download ressources are required for
these, but I was unable to find correct links.
Ciao
