Thanks Andrew, Please send me your ideas and examples. My idea is also to use it in an extension.
I have upload my ides of an extension here http://blog.magenta-aps.dk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Review.oxt . The extension creates a new toolbar called Review. The right most icon starts a macro with a dialog that is localized (so far only English and Danish is included). All localization stuff is in the module "Localization". Problems so faris: - When I read the DialogStrings_xx_YY.properties i have some problems with encoding. Only files created on the same platform shows right (Danish language consist of some non-ascii characters æ, ø and å. Currently this reads with wrong encoding on Windows (use Danish version to see the problem). How can that be solved? - Effectiveness. I'm not sure this is the most effective way and I'm affraid that with many strings it will run slow. I haven't tried with more than these very few strings. Missing work to be done (not problems) - Error handling - Better way to load only relevant strings (only partly implemented so far) - Default language should be from DialogString_xx_YY.default and not hardcoded - Script to generate Addons.xcu and /Office/UI/XYZWindowState.xcu Feel free to tell me what you think of my solution.
