Strange messages in ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs
Last modified: 2006-11-15 18:49:30 UTC
Please describe the problem: I see the following messages in the po file: #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:205 msgid "DisplayName" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:303 msgid "FirstName" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:303 msgid "NickName" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:303 msgid "LastName" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:313 msgid "PrimaryEmail" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:317 msgid "_AimScreenName" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:321 msgid "HomePhone" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:325 msgid "CellularNumber" msgstr "" #: ../ContactViewer/ContactWindow.cs:329 msgid "WebPage2" msgstr "" I'm not sure they are supposed to be viewed by users at all, but if they are, please put spaces between the individual words, to make them look like normal English words. Otherwise, please remove the Catalog.GetString calls. Steps to reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
Ah, I found the reason for this: there is another method called GetString() in the ContactWindow.cs source file which is different from the Catalog.GetString() method. It looks like gettext just assumes all GetString() values are string marked for translation; in the cases above they aren't. I'll look into changing the method name for these.
Fixed this up, thanks for the report!
