Hi

I'm working with gettext and need to define a language Fallback. I got this 
working, but with a global variable. I don't really like this and I would like 
to pass this variable to the gettext Fallback's contructor, but I don't know 
how. For simplicity, I won't put the whole code here, just the important parts.

Before you look at it, I want to ask you: how can I pass the variable: 
"my_plugin" to the constructor of the "MissingTranslationsFallback" class? If 
you see, an instance of this class will be created automatically by gettext. I 
don't create it. When calling the " add_fallback" method of the 
gettext.GNUTranslations class, you have to pass a class and not an instance.

#Defining a global dict, which is ugly, I know
MY_GLOBALS = {}

class TranslationService(object):
  """...__init__ and other methods are defined here"""

  def install(self):
    """...some code goes here..."""
    #Now the ugly part :-(
    MY_GLOBALS['py_plugin'] = self._py_plugin
    current_catalog = gettext.translation(plugin_name, localedir = 
locale_folder,
        class_= MissingTranslationsFallback, languages = [current_language])
    current_catalog.install()

class MissingTranslationsFallback(gettext.GNUTranslations, object):
  def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(MissingTranslationsFallback, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    #And here is where I need to access py_plugin :-(
    py_plugin = MY_GLOBALS['py_plugin']
    i18n_service = py_plugin.get_i18n_service()
    #Adds an instance to the class that will handle the missing translations
    self.add_fallback(MissingTranslationsLogger(i18n_service.get_language()))

class MissingTranslationsLogger(gettext.NullTranslations):
  def __init__(self, language):
    self._language = language
    self._missing = set()

  def gettext(self, message):
    if (message not in self._missing):
      self._missing.add(message)
      print "Missing message: " + message + " current language: " + 
self._language
    return message

Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards
Josef
