I'll answer as translator, I do not yet know how Lazarus handles this.
The programmer should only change the .pot files.
There are other tools that propagate the changes in the .pot to the .po files,
which can be used by the programmer (in the Makefile) or the translators, using
"msgmerge".
For example, a translator could do:
msgmerge --previous --no-wrap --force-po \
-U $POFILE -C ../memory.es.po $POTFILE
msgfmt --check --stat $POFILE
rm messages.mo
The translator has access to previous translations and memory files to do fuzzy
automatic translations which you probably as programmer can't.
The programmer could do:
msgmerge --previous --no-wrap --force-po -U $POFILE $POTFILE
msgfmt --check --stat $POFILE
rm messages.mo
Notice the missing memory file
(and repeat for each language)
A sample script as programmer, for all languages:
#!/bin/bash
for FILES in `ls *.po` ;
do
echo
echo $FILES "-------------------------------------------------------------"
echo
F=`basename $FILES .po`
FF=`basename $F .es`
POFILE=$FF.es.po
POTFILE=../../00-pot/$FF.pot
if test -f $POFILE -a -f $POTFILE; then
echo Applying msgmerge to $POFILE
msgmerge --previous --no-wrap --force-po -U $POFILE $POTFILE
msgfmt --check --stat $POFILE
rm messages.mo
else
echo "Not found: " $POFILE or $POTFILE
fi || { echo "msgmerge --no-wrap --force-po for \"$POTFILE\" failed" ; }
done
Of course, you'd have to adapt paths to your situation.
