Title: Translate problem
Post by: Djordje Radovanovic on March 09, 2015, 12:13:28 AM

I have problem with Translate procedure. When I send text to translate procedure it receives string in variable p_String

p_web.Translate PROCEDURE(<String p_String>,Long p_AllowHtml=0)

but p_String variable take length from original string so my return string with translate message often is shorter than it needs to be.

Example:
I send 'Alert' and it returns me 'Poruk' instead of 'Poruka'

exactly long string as input string. Tried to find it in template to mend this but no luck.

Best regards,

Djole

I made this changes in my application so Translate procedure in WebHandler now looks like this:

p_web.Translate PROCEDURE(<String p_String>,Long p_AllowHtml=0)

ReturnValue          ANY

RetString         STRING(1000)

  CODE
  ! Start of "NetTalk Method Executable Code Section"
  ! [Priority 2500]
    case p_string
      of 'Alert'
        RetString = 'Poruka'
      of 'First'
        RetString = 'Prva'
      of 'Previous'
        RetString = 'Sledeća'
      of 'Last'
        RetString = 'Poslednja'
      of 'Confirm'
        RetString = 'Potvrdite'
      of 'Are you sure you want to cancel the changes?'
        RetString = 'Sigurno odustajete od izmena?'
      of 'Cancel'
        RetString = 'Prekid'
      of 'No'
        RetString = 'Ne'
      ELSE
        RetString = p_String
    END 
    omit('dovde')
  ! Parent Call
  ReturnValue = PARENT.Translate(p_String,p_AllowHtml)
  !dovde
  ReturnValue = PARENT.Translate(clip(RetString),p_AllowHtml)   

and result is Ok.

Best regards,

Djole

Hi Djole,

that is indeed the correct approach. If you need to alter any passed string parameter it's a good idea to make a local string, assign the parameter into that, and work with that.

This is standard Clarion - not specifically related to the web server.
