Re: [OT] auto convert resource property files to different language
That, or you can always sub-contract the translation works. Translators are not exactly hard to find, and anyone who even barely knows the language is likely to do a better job than any translation program. If the sales people were not complete morons they made sure that each extra language results in more money coming your way (to pay for the sub-contracting costs and to give you some profit on it). -- If education is too expensive, try ignorance.

RE: [OT] auto convert resource property files to different language
You've just asked for the Holy Grail of language translation. I don't think that tool exists yet. There are companies that provide that service. -Michael -Original Message- From: Ashish Kulkarni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 10:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [OT] auto convert resource property files to different language Hi, I have a properties file which is in english, now i have to create properties files for different langauage like russian, spanish, french etc. now i dont know any of these languages is there any automatic conversion tool which will translate the properties file to different languages.

Re: [OT] auto convert resource property files to different language
You're dreaming mate. But depending on the size of the file I'll do it for $50/hour :-) If you're really adventurous and have time to kill what you could do is write something using the altavista babel fish page and parsing the results out of the page automatically and make it translate everything for you. It would still take bloody ages, I suppose, but less work and that would be a pretty useful soft :-) Altavista might send ninjas to hunt you down though... -- If education is too expensive, try ignorance.
